Now you even have my wife wondering about it! It is like my 1967 Cadillac with 25,000 miles on it, everyone says it has to have more miles, but I have had it since 1982 it just sat around.

There's no missing that Caddy. Wasn't it Mary Kay, or one of the cosmetic companies that gave Pink cars to the their top sales people?
The only feature, of non-Parker origin on your gun, that jumps out at me is the gold wash on the Deeley latch on the fore end. Close scrutiny might suggest refinished barrels, but certainly well enough.
Who is to say with any certainty what the value is? Listed on One of the sites, or on the shelf in a top shelf gunshop, It might languish at $80K-$100K, but put it front of the right two bidders in a quality auction, it could bring $125K or more. As Dave says, the configuration might hold it back some. I do recall a 20ga. Hershell Chaddick had, many years ago that went well north of that.
