I have a M1860 Spencer Carbine with a serial number of 60521. The first number is difficult to read and at first I thought it was a 3, but under closer examination it is a 6. My Great, great grandfather was in the 11th Pa. Cav. and in Nov. 1864 outside Petersburg, Va., they were issued Spencers and he carried it into battle at Chapins Farms where he was wounded. I was hopeing it would be possible to find a reference to that serial number. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Timothy Bennett
