Vaule of 2nd Gen Blk Pwd Colts

Grepse
I recently acquired two black powder Colt pistols.
The first came in a Colt brown box, it's an 1851 Navy. The box said C-1121 and the serial number 22557. It was purchased from John Jovino back in the 1970s.
The second is a 1860 Army in a black Colt box marked the authentic colt black powder series. The box also says model number F1200 with a serial number of 206955.
Both guns are unfired and the cylinders are unturned. The yellow brass is starting to mellow.
Regards,
Jeffrey C.

    Jeffrey,
    You'll doubtless get responses from folks with more info than I have on your Colts, hopefully some with meaningful input on values.
    Still, I offer the following in the hope that it may be helpful:
    Back when they first came out I bought a couple of the "Authentic Colt Black Powder" revolvers. This was obviously a few years ago but as I recall Colt did not go out of their way to let you know that the revolvers were made in Italy; possibly assembled and blued in Hartford, but essentially foreign repo's, not "authentic" Colts. How this translates into collector value at this point, I have no idea.
    Good luck.
    Rob
