Wom was correct in his guess.

Aiken Collection
One of the finest Boutet pistols in or out of a museum is this single flint lock pistol made on the special order of Napolean for his brother Joseph, King of Spain. In chiselled bronze and sheet silver are worked eagles, panoplies of arms, Roman heads and of course, the Spanish coat of arms. The matte black barrel is inlaid with 150 gold stars.

Miniature Arms by Merrill Lindsay

I Have attached the verbage that follows the puzzle. I have a seperate picture that I will have to send on the next replay because of size. The Billy johnson referenced in the book is my father.

Thsi is a picture of the original gun and the one my father made.

The next to last paragraph of the link talks about the miniatures value


Nine of the guns featured in the book under the harry Knode collection are now in the Museum of American History on permanant display.

Very nice Bill.
He must have spent a lot of time doing that.
It's almost flawless.

Your father is an excellent craftsman. I must confess that I was miffed that Wom had beat me to the final answer or I would have replied sooner. I had figured all but three words (you did issue a challenge) and couldn't wait to get home to finish the puzzle.

Great game.

Even greater artwork.
