Default Inherit a 1885 Parker gun - What should I do?

I have inherit a 1885 Parker from my wife's grandfather. With the help of this site I found out the following:
-Grade 1
-Barrel weight is 6 lbs
-10 gauge
-Laminated barrel
-Has ejector

Before I do anything to it I would appreciate some advice. I do not know much about guns and very little about how to care for them. If it is not worth much I may want to clean/restore it and keep it, but if it has enough value I may chose to sell it.

Any help with understanding what I have and what it is potentially worth would very much be appreciated.

I have uploaded 25 pictures of the gun here:

In advance I appreciate your help,

Mikka
