Default 1903 Parker 12 Gauge

Howdy. This Parker (see pictures) was my great-grandfather's. A gun he acquired in barter for medical services provided to a patient. I would love to hear any tidbits anyone can offer on the gun itself or what I might assign as a value for my firearms rider on my homeowners insurance.

As far as restoration I intend to soak/clean the metal, but leave the wood as is, unless someone has other guidance

Serial # 120768 (1903)
Frame Size = 2
Barrel Weight = 46
Grade = P (Parker Steel ??)
Steel = Twist

Thanks!
John
