Just picked up this 1860 Spencer carbine with serial #59893. Unfortunately its a wall hanger as the barrel is good and corroded. I understand from the little info professor Google provided that the serial # places it in the later date-range of the model 1860 production run, but before the model 1865 runs began. Regardless, it seems likely that if it was issued during the ACW, it would have been at the tail end in 1865. Does anyone know of a resource where serial number ranges have been matched to units, or any other serial number lists for the model 1860? Any other sage wisdom anyone can impart on this piece? I know very little about these guns.
Many thanks!
