DOC AV on Gunboards identified this musket:
French Made, probably sold to Turkey in the late 1700s early 1800s.( Toughra stamp of the Sultan on Lock and Barrel. Script details on LHS of barrel.) Check underneath barrel for St.Etienne Markings ( proofs etc).

Jean,
Thanks for the feedback from DocAV. Might you have a link to the gunboards post?
Regarding fair market value for this, does around $1,000 seem about right? Or is it worth significantly less due to the "cleaning up" that happened?
Thanks again for the feedback.
