Turkish Shishane, this example, with a .54 caliber damascus barrel, is the only rifled gun in the bunch. Also, probably the plainest example I've ever seen.

Kariophili dated 1846

Albanian Rat tail pistol laying on a Silahlik (weapons belt) with original powder measure, priming flask, and 2 Palaska (cartridge boxes)

Tanchica with 55 inch barrel

Bulgarian Boyliya missing it's hammer/cock.
