Default 1st Year Production 10 gauge

I have a 10 gauge with pat. date Nov.13,1866 without a serial number. The numbers on water table and barrel lug are 4 6. Has a beautiful English stock but metal is alittle rough. I would like to know what it would cost to restore the gun. I may restore it depending on the cost or sell it depending on the price.

Without a serial number how do you conclude it is first year production?

I'm assuming he's thinking the patent date indicates the year it was made.

Send me the gun. There is a serial number on there somewhere. I will find it and send it back to you.
