Dear Lisa, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. The presented object appears to be a Middle Eastern, Persian of Afghan rifle made in the 19th century. It has a flintlock lock and bone inlay work on the stock, Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in bad condition and severe damage is visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 40 to 80 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, Gregory
