Black Powder Only" and on left side "SEARS ROEBUCK AND CO. CHICAGO, IL/Made in Japan, Miroku 7659". Engraved, gold accented lock. Brass parts with medium to dark patina. Barrel has a natural rust patina. Stock is designed in two pieces with a "Lehigh Valley slope" style butt and nicely shaped patchbox. Has a scratch in the left side of the forearm and a diagonal crack in the right side of the forearm directly forward of the separator. Appears mechanically good, but very heavy trigger pull.
