Wow, what a gun! I am no expert, but that looks like a grade 3 to me. Rob, are you sure on the serial number? I would have thought it to be earlier.

I agree with Eric. If PGCA has records for it, you would be well served joining PGCA and ordering a research letter on it. That is the kind of gun that could have been ordered by someone famous

Wowza Rob.
I would really like to see what the barrel thickness of a 6 frame 10 ga looks like from the breech and/or the muzzle. It must be extremely thick if it weighs 15+ lbs.
I also suggest you double check your serial number, grade stamping if there is one.
Sorry I am no help when it comes to valuing this configuration.
Best,
Erick

Rare gun with only a handful found in the serialization book by grade and barrel length. Most found in the 41-50K range. Book doesn't give frame size but very rare to da the least. A good condition report and better pics of areas of interest would give a better chance for estimates.

The barrel fit looks funny, like someone smashed the end with a hammer.

Looks like the barrels may have been dropped on the breech end. Hopefully a good barrel guy can fix that. Still, an awesome gun.
