This is a solid, very good condition, Palmetto Pistol, manufactured in 1853 by William Glaze for the State of South Carolina.  The lock is marked with the Palmetto Armory and Palmetto Tree trademard forward of the hammer.  The the rear of the hammer, it is marked Columbia, SC 1852.  The PV over Palmetto tree proofs are clear at the rear of the barrel.  The left barrel flat is marked Wm. Glaze & Co.  The iron surfaces are a nice, smooth brown patination which have not been cleaned.  The brass surfaces have been lightly cleaned.  There is an extra screw in the backstrap, for some reason.  The rammer assembly appears to be original and there is a small crack, which is now sealed, about a half inch above the butt cap.  All in all a substantial Palmetto Pistol, which has seen moderate use.  Price $5,750.  Price Reduced $4,250!!
