En Eibar - 1859 - Beistegui

[mpeg69]

Hello,

I am a guy from Denmark collecting Danish weapons. I have bought a collection with this gun:

Eibar Ano de 1859 - Por Jose Mateo Beistegui

rytter-1.JPG (27.04 KiB) Visto 649 veces

Could someone tell me a bit about this pistol ?
How much would it be worth to a collector ?

(Sorry it is in english - I don't speak spanish)

Hi. It is very difficult to assess this gun for only two photographs. It depends on the general condition and the condition of barrel.Regards.

Hello,
I think the best option is to try to sell it in the Spanish collectors market.
In order to get an idea you can visit this web:
https://www.todocoleccion.net
and try a search with the word "pistola" in the section "armas de fuego de avancarga" (muzzleloading fireguns). I've done so and I've found some Eibar percussion pistols for sale there, take a look:
https://www.todocoleccion.net/buscador.c ... =r&D=t&N=i

But of course the real price will depend on its general condition and many other factors: craftmanship quality, rarity, etc. The barrel looks very good and the fact of being dated and signed adds value to the piece (assuming it's not fake, of course). I hope some of the experts in the forum will give their opinion on this matter.

Good luck!

This web www.todocoleccion.net is a good option but be carefull the prices and the quality of the guns not always match , a lot of times are just crazy

¿Alguien ha identificado el maestro armero, Beistegui?

Has anyone identified the gunsmith, Mr. Beistegui?

Como le indicado por privado a nuestro visitante danes parece ser que habia un tal jose beistegui activo en eibar en 1855 segun una lista que he localizado en la web que producia escopetas y parejas de pistolas de duelo

Que sea el mismo que el jose mateo del cañon ya es otro cantar
