Very hard to say from the pictures you have posted . Stock is repaired for sure . 450-850 could be more with better pictures and the condition of barrels if it for sure has Ejectors and not extractors add some too. Book says it should have extractors .

Unless it was converted later on, a gun that early does not have ejectors.
Note that and extractor draws the shells up so that they can be pilled by hand. Ejectors toss them out onto the ground automatically.
The “value” question cannot really be answered. That is for you or the market to determine. The question more is what is the condition of the gun. That will determine possible value. And the condition cannot be determined with those two poor photos.

The gun is in very poor condition. The value would not be much.

Hmmmm , send the barrels to Breck $450 plus shipping , have Patton refinish the stock and put on a new pad . Easily already over a grand to get it presentable . I’d hate to have more than $400 in it before starting the facelift .

I kinda think the gun has a replacement stock . There’s no initial plate at the toe and the grip cap does not appear to be correct .

Money pit gun IMHO, but it would make an interesting wall hanger if that's your thing.

With the condition of barrels not known this gun could be a shooter if all things check out . It doesnt need to be hung on the wall or need to look good to be a shooter just the safety factor and the proper loads . Just doesn't have a lot of value as is . Whoever said a gun had to look fancy to get the job done ?
