Great gun!! From 1889 through at least 1929, when it was over stamped Discontinued, the PH-/PHE- was the lowest grade offered in 10-gauge. By the 1930 catalog the VH-/VHE- carried the line "10 gauge may be obtained in this grade, at $10.00 additional." With a serial number in the 230xxx range this must be one of the first, of the very few, VH-Grade 10-gauges made. By the serial number chronology in the back of The Parker Story, 1929. The 3 1/2 inch Magnum-10 wasn't introduced until 1932.
