Yeah, this gun is not a PH grade, nor does it have twist barrels. Deffinately a GH with Damacusus. And I am sure the owner knows what guage it is.
Tom,
What length are those barrels? They look very long in the photo. 32"?
Is this a No. 1 or No. 2 frame gun? This will be marked on the bottom of the barrel locking lug.
The GH grade is a very nice one that a lot of Parker collectors start out with since they are readily available at fair prices. Especially for Damascus guns.
The value of the gun will be more determined by the overall condition as well as other details like shottable condition. How is the lockup? Are the bores nice? Wall thickness along with bore condition will determine if it is a shooter.
It is hard to tell for sure bt your photos, but it looks like your GH is in good condition overall, but with very little original metal finish left. Looks like the gun was well used, but cared for. Straight and non buggarded screws are always a big plus. Yours are pretty good. I can say that if this gun is shootable, a value of around $1,500 might be good given what we see here.
