Robert, I'm not trying to be cryptic. 237802 is in the "book" as a 28 gauge, VHE with 26" barrels and was probably made on the 00-Frame which, at the time it was made, was the standard frame size for that particular gauge. Whether it was a capped pistol grip, an uncapped pistol grip or a straight grip is not indicated in the book. Value is entirely dependent on condition but being a 28 gauge, if it is in the range of 'very good' and 'un-messed-with' to 'as new in box' would have a value of anywhere from $8K up to about $20K.... again, depending entirely upon condition.

It was made after Remington bought the Parker Gun Works but was made by the original Parker Bros. employees and contractors in the Meriden CT plant so it can be considered a Remington Parker though it may not have all the 'earmarks' of a later Remington Parker.
