Alexander Hamilton’s Pistols Headed to Auction, Expected to Set New Records

 

Rock Island Auction Company is going to auction off a set of totally unique pistols this coming May. The pistols, dating back to the Revolutionary War, along with a set of epaulets, belonged to none other than Alexander Hamilton.

“Immensely historic and impeccably documented pair of national treasure flintlock holster pistols inscribed “AH”, and presented to Revolutionary War patriot, Founding Father and first United States Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton by General Philip Schuyler, accompanied by Hamilton’s field service epaulets worn by him while serving as an officer under Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army and future first President of The United States of America, George Washington.” (Photo: RIA
