Hexagonal or round barrel?
Definitely looks like a "Pinfire" Revolver.
Possibly a Lefaucheux.
Mid 19th century (1850's)
Very nice find!
Yes this one has a hexagon barrel.
That is an Extremely rare find (for being in the middle of no where) it would be a Belgian Lefaucheux.
You would need to find out the chamber diameter for the ammo size it will be for
example- 9mm 12mm to get a full Identification and barrel length.
1870's if it has a round pin front site -non adjustable.
