Default Parker Hammer Gun - Beligum

[B]I just inherited this 12 ga Parker w/ laminated steel Beligum stamped on barrel & reciever. If i were to sell, what is a fair price. What is the grade? Any other history info? Serial numbers on reciever & forearm match. # 7347.
I did some research on my own, but I'm not a collector. As far as i know - its'
made in 1876 w/ only 2,682 produced. The barrel lugs are cross hatched in a diamond pattern w/ no frame size stamped. The top sight area between the barrels is concave & stamped Laminated Steel Beligum. Bottom of barrels are stamped w/ a star V & ELG. Water table is stamped GF / 8. Also a star / V . 690 & also Beligum. & 12.
3" from the front muzzel is stamped 19 & 7" from the muzzel is stamped 90.
The barrels measure 26 3/8" Don't know where markings are for choke sizes.
I hope this info helps. Also sending pic's. I'm hoping w/ the low serial number it may be rare & worth a lot. Dad passed over 2 years ago, it's taken me this long just to look at his collection. Thank You, Rich
