T/C renegade

[gunlover_06]

Need some help here,I have a T/C cap and ball 54 caliber renegade black powder rifle it has double triggers does not look like it has ever been fired but not sure on this.
My main question is what would or is this rifle worth, thinking of selling it, Any help would be appreciated.

'Worth' is entirely a matter of condition, and the appearance of never having been fired can be very deceiving. More specifically, the condition of the bore is very important. You need to verify it's condition to get a meaningful evaluation.

Assuming it's in 100% condition, which is a very big assumption, a .54 Renegade is valued at $295 by The Blue Book of Modern Black Powder Arms, Fifth Edition (2007). The Blue Book is only a guide. Actual prices can and do vary considerably in either direction depending on what the buyer's interests are.

I agree with mykeal that they can sell for $300 if in new & unfired condition.
And having the original box and manual is a plus.
To illustrate how much the condition does matter, used Renegades can be had for anywhere between $125 and $250, with the average around $179.
And many only fetch up to $225 in excellent condition, so the value really depends on how much an individual buyer is willing to pay and the selling venue.
A lot of folks break their TC down into parts [i.e. - lock, stock & barrel] and sell them on eBay to maximize its value.
