Default Parker Restoration Advice Wanted

I need some expert input.

Here's an important GH 12 ga.

Should I send it off to get fully restored? You know, the barrels and frame reblued and the stock refinished or should I just shoot it as is in all its original glory. I know people say its only original once and I wouldn't want to totally destroy the historical and vintage value of the gun.

Should I get a PGCA letter?

Then, how much do you think I can get for it? Restored or not restored to look like new?

Happy Halloween Folks.
