Hello, I purchased a tackle box and it had this wood box in the bottom with some gun sights. Looking to sell them but I have no idea what I have so I figured I'd ask the experts! One is marked Lyman and the other has just distance numbers. Any help on what they fit or what I should ask would be greatly appreciated.

The one on the left is an 1895 Winchester SRC sight and I think the other is a Lyman Remington Model 12 peep. The finish on the 1895 sight doesn't look right, though.

The SRC sight goes for around $150, and the Model 12 sight can go for as much as $350.

Thank you so much for the info I couldn't be happier! Jeff

I've never seen that dark of a finish on an 1895 sight. Usually they are dull grey or blued. I wonder if it isn't a repro or something.

I don't know. Everything found in the tackle box was from the correct time period. Nothing looked touched for a very long time. If it is a repro, it would still have to be very old! Thank you again for your expertise! Jeff

If you happen to stumble on to a Lyman No. 54 sight I need one.
