just got an 1860 primer box, and was wondering if it was standard to be silvered inside, japanned outside and then painted gray-green?

Neat box. I am afraid I don't know. Certainly outside my knowledge area. I sold one about a year ago or so and don't recall what the finish was like.

I looked at mine. Some are Japaned on the outside, others are not , and never were... and there are quite a few variations of size and stampings on the lids too. Something new to collect for you !! One of each !
