Sharps New Model 1863 cartridge conversion carbine. Caliber .50-70. Gun retaining 10%-15% of original case color blue. 90% wood finish. 95% for the cartouche mark. Metal stampings correct. $1700 - $1900.
This auction shows one in nearly new condition for $6,900, so yours with the worn finish on the metal could be around that $1,800 mark.
