“Robert Edward Lee (January 19, 1807 – October 12, 1870) was an American soldier known for commanding the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia in the American Civil War from 1862 until his surrender in 1865. The son of Revolutionary War officer Henry "Light Horse Harry" Lee III, Lee was a top graduate of the United States Military Academy and an exceptional officer and military engineer in the United States Army for 32 years. During this time, he served throughout the United States, distinguished himself during the Mexican–American War, served as Superintendent of the United States Military Academy, and married Mary Custis.” This Colt commemorative is in Excellent condition with a wood display case, powder flask, bullet mold, nipple wrench, cap tin and one keys; it should make for an excellent conversation starter given its beautifully constructed form and rich case coloring. If you are a fan of the Civil War or American history in general, this will be a great addition to your collection. We currently have a Ulysses S. Grant commemorative up for sale (AT-117 SN#1250USG)) making the two would make a handsome pair.
