This percussion hammer was in a mixed lot of parts I bought. Any ideas what it is from? Anyone need one?

It looks like a hammer for an Enfield P1853/58/61 Lock, but it has too much engraving near where it strikes the cone. So I imagine a civilian rifle made on that pattern for the British Militia OR an export rifle.

Gus has a good eye! Here's the same hammer on my commercial civil war imported P1858 Enfield
