Dear Michael, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. The presented object appears to be a Pennsylvania percussion lock rifle with 59.5 inches total length. It has a maple stock with the typical brass inlays. The rifle was made by the gunsmith Henry Hamburger (born 1811). Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in medium condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 600 to 1200 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, George
