Default Question on Serialization Book vs Parker letter.

So, I have a new to me Parker Trojan coming next week. The lucky owner was on a trip to Africa, so there has been some delay in it coming to me.

Anyway, in the Parker Serialization book, the serial number for the gun shows as a VH 16ga with 28" barrels, not a 20ga Trojan with 28" barrels. I just confirmed with him, that 237411 is indeed the correct Serial number, and it is in fact a 20ga shotgun.....

So, I checked the site here, and there is evidently information to provide a Parker Letter for the gun, but I guess I am curious, if the serialization book is wrong, will the letter be wrong too?

Gun should be a 1935 built 20ga Trojan with 28" tubes and F/F chokes.... There are no Trojans listed in the 2374xx range at all.
