  It could range from $400 for a non functional beater to $2500 and up. Apparently ,there were more period Spanish copies than original MH's.However,I've never seen a Spanish copy of the Pocket Army,which yours appears to be,based on the description. Your photos also need to show any markings on the side and top of the barrel. If they are worn off,show the pin just behind the loading gate. If it's flush with the frame,it's a Spanish copy.Hope this helps.

  Hello Aldo35,
  
  If I recall correctly, the MH revolvers marked "Calibre Winchester 1873" were actually chambered for the .44WCF, also known as the .44-40 Winchester. These would be "Large Frame" Merwin Hulberts, and as pecospark has noted, with the 3 ?" barrel the model is a "Pocket Army".

  To each of you who have responded,
  
  Thank you for your help and suggestions. I am trying to figure out how to load pictures. It doesn't seem like rocket science however the first pictures I took are to large, figured that one out now the repeating the process .
