Dear David, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal. The presented object appears to be a flintlock pistol. It is not marked and has a brass decoration. Such pistols with an inlaid brass decor could be made around the Mediterreames Sea bit and also Great Britan. The bigger countries usually stamp their weapons. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 150 to 350 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
