I was a Fox guy before i bought my first Parker, Sterlingworths are great guns, still have a couple.
But the question was is a grand too much for a 12 gauge we don't have enough info on. unless it is a very good early Philly gun, I would offer less.

Very little case colors, barrels suspiciously shiny means $1000 is way up on the high side. $1000 should buy a high condition Sterlingworth with a good percentage of visible colors. They are hard to find but worth looking for. $600 to $700 should buy a really nice Sterly with original butt and no problems of originality.

It is a Philadelphia sterlingworth. Still think 1000 is a little high for the condition.

Good Advice. My gut already told me quit spending so much money on guns.

Eldon,
You can get many Sterlingworths in sound and similar condition to what you describe for the 700 to 800 price mark you are thinking. Lockup on Sterlingworths is usually always good and tight due to the rotary mechanism. Case colors, or at least a good amount of them great more rare on them because the factory colors wore off easily.
