The correct barrel address for that serial number would be " - ADDRESS SAML COLT NEW YORK CITY -", and it would be smaller letters and shorter than that one. The hammer knurling would be hand cut cross-hatching, not lines. The caliber marking was done with a single stamp, not individual letters, etc., etc.
Sorry, but the gun is a fake, pure and simple. I hope no one has any significant amount of money in it, since its true value is actually less than that of an honest reproduction in good condition.
