1870's era Belgian made pinfire. Probably not marked in any way, it's hard to figure out just who made what. Commonly made in 9mm or 11mm pinfire. Weird little cartridges, there was a pin sticking out at 90 degrees that the hammer struck, kind of a self contained firing pin. You can see the notches in the back of the cylinder where the pins stick out.
