hello,,serial number is too high according to my books to be a lightning model,,you didn't mention if this as a single action or double action and also is this a small frame pistol or a peacemaker cowboy sized pistol? also is it 41 centerfire or 41 rimfire,,sounds more like a rimfire pistol than a centerfire ,,need this info to try to figure what ya have ,,a pic would be nice also to see the condition and which model ya have ,,

Sounds a lot like a Single Action Army and if so made in 1900. Value could be significant depends on Condition, Condition, and Condition..

I have the same Patent numbers stamped on the frame of my .41 . But a lower serial number .Does your loading gate have 321 stamped on it ? And have found out what it might be worth yet ?

Loading gate will have a partial serial no, so they are all not the same. Value is 500 to over 5,000 but depends on original condition and pre-1899 is also a premium.

Then someone put a different loading gate on it . It is a pre - 1899 . It is an 1875 .
