Engraved, Silver Inlaid, and Incised Carved Frederick Stover Percussion American Long Rifle

Frederick Stover is recorded as working in Maryland and then later on in York County, Pennsylvania. This rifle has a fairly heavy barrel that is neatly signed "Fredk * Stover" on top and features traditional blade and notch sights, adjustable double set triggers, seventeen engraved silver inlays including a very attractive eagle and shield design on the cheekpiece, brass furniture, attractive four-piece patchbox with floral engraving, release button in the toe plate which has floral blooms engraved around the screws, engraved side plate, and incised carving on the butt mainly behind the cheekpiece. The patch box contains a pair of iron worms.

Class: Antique

Very good with dark brown patina on the lock and barrel along with moderate oxidation/pitting, heavy flash wear at the breech, attractive aged patina on the silver and brass, and crisp engraving. The stock is also very good and has a partial repair at the nose of the lock, mild scrapes and dings, mostly distinct molding and carving, some thin cracks, and general mild overall wear. The set trigger needs work (adjustment screw absent), but the lock functions.
