Dear Daniel,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a pair of gunlocks made out of steel. The etched decoration indicates a dating in the second half of the 19th century or even later. The design of the lock indicate that this is a Pinfire cartridge system and not for an older flintlock system. The hammer of a flintlock has a jawscrew to fix the flint. It would be difficult to find a potential buyer for such an object.
This piece is in medium condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 0 to 40 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With kind regards,
Georg
