The stock book is available for this serial number. The examination of the stock book, and order book if available, with a letter request may show the original grade. I've got a 0 grade 10 gauge (1897?) top lever with laminated barrels that is on the Parkers Found list. A long ago letter request included the production info, but IIRC the price it was sold for also put it in the 0 grade of price list at the time.
