Hello Ryan and Welcome!

Your Parker appears to be a Grade 1 and is listed as a "PT"

I have never seen the TT before but a single "T" within the upper and lower crescents would indicate the barrel steel to be "Twist"

9508 is the order number which will be different from the serial number that is stamped on the side of the barrel lug.

The meaning of the "F" is unknown. The 2 on the bottom of the lug is the frame size and you are correct about the pre-struck barrel weight stamp.

Your Parker looks to have been restocked but I won't say 'definitely'.

Value is a funny thing..... I wouldn't even hazard a guess without having it in hand.

Ryan, we would like to encourage you to join the PGCA and order a Research Letter for your Parker. A Research Letter for a "Forum Member" is $100 while a membership is only $40 and Research Letters are reduced to $40 each for PGCA members. Do the math.... save $20 and get 4 issues of our 48 page, glossy, color magazine, Parker Pages per year. Further benefits are access to "Members Only" sections of this website including the buying and selling of Parkers, books, and other collectible items.
