Two years ago I bought a nice A Grade 12 gauge for $9K from a very reputable dealer. It was also in the 60k serial number range and was a lovely example of A Grade wood, checkering and fabulous engraving. After two days I sent it back because I wasn't entirely pleased with it. The dealer took it back 'no questions asked' for a full refund.
My point is that if it is as nice as you make it sound it is a valuable gun. It will be worth exactly what you and the current owner decide is a fair price.
