Well since it was last manufactured in the 40's and it's a Army model the engraving could be of Peal Harbor I'm sure it was specially ordered in remembrance.

    I'm sorry I noticed you said "sailing ships" then this couldn't have been Pearl, It was first manufactured in 1860 so the engraving could be of Charleston Harbor during the civil war. Its well within the period

    You can also look at the Norfolk Naval Yard it was destroyed on April 20th 1861 by the confederate army.

What is the value of my colt 38 army special with serial number 434165

The weapon's condition is really needed to be known before being able to provide information like this. And to know its condition, it really needs to be inspected thoroughly. Take it to a valuer or firearms enthusiast to try and gauge a proper amount.

Colt black powder pistol , serial # 326407.. Con you tell me anything about this gun.. Thanks

Serial number comes out to be a colt 1849 pocket revolver made in 1871 values range from around 300 to several thousand dollars depending on condition matching numbers and functionality
The Model 1849 Pocket Revolver, a replacement for the Baby Dragoon, was the most widely produced of any Colt percussion pistol. Nearly 340,000 were manufactured during a 23-year production run that ended in 1873. Although most production took place in Colt's Hartford factory, approximately 11,000 were made in London. These pistols were available with octagonal barrels ranging between 3 and 6 inches in length. The one-piece walnut grips, and casehardened frame, hammer, and loading lever previously featured on Colt's Walker and Dragoon revolvers was carried over to the Model 1849 Pocket, however, the square-back trigger guard was replaced with a round guard, and the engraved cylinder featured a stagecoach holdup scene rather than the Texas Ranger - Indian fight that had been standard on earlier Colts. Approximately 4,000 so-called "Wells Fargo" variants, with 3-inch barrels and without loading levers, were also manufactured
