In August 2008, a Bannerman quaker Springfield musket with wooden barrel sold on eBay for $800.00, however the lock was stamped 1861 with an 1863 hammer attached. All other components on the quaker musket were original 1863 type fittings, except for an 1842 barrel band at the muzzle.
The value of a Springfield 1846 .69 caliber musket in excellent condition varies slightly with the collector's market. This gun could fetch about 4000 dollars at auction.

Need photos or more information! This is likely a M 1816 musket. My questions are is it still in it's original flintlock configuration or has it been converted to percussion(as most are) ? Also what is it's overall condition? Without this info it is impossible to give the gun a value.
It's value is almost entirely dependant on the condition and history. I've seen them sell for as much as $5,000 and as little as $200.
what you have is a converted civil war 58 cal. musket. After the civil war those muskets were converted to 50/70 cal (trapdoor) center fire rifles. Later the 45/70 (trapdoor) came into being. Value depends on overall condition of the rifle................
I was searching for the value of an 1810 enfield percussion musket, the only information I have found was for an 1853 enfield musket valued at $700 (today).
Are you talking about a modern reproduction for re-enactment purposes, or an original antique? If the former, the maker's name and date of manufacture would assist. original antique in 70 % condition

Unknown, but it depends on how old it is and where it came from. Musket balls are still being made today for black powder enthusiasts, and they make good slingshot ammo too. These would be worth no more than the current value of lead. A musket ball from an important battle, duel, or other historical event would surely have monetary value, but it would depend on how much the buyer is willing to pay, and proving it is genuine will be difficult. A musket ball is much easier to counterfeit than a coin.
400-900 dollars,depending on the condition of your rifle,and that your rifle is in its original condition.
My research indicates that your springfield model 1873 was produced in 1880.As to value these fine old rifles range in price from 650 dollars for a gun with 60% original finish and a good bore up to 1,500 dollars for a great example with 90% original finish remaining.
