The work is overall on the amateur side by way of quality. It is not like people would be fighting over it if it were for sale.
It has the most value to you, who inherited the gun from someone who cared enough to leave it to you.

Thank you for the reply, Brian. I think what threw me off early on and having no knowledge with these guns, was the engravings not adding to but possibly taking away from the value. Also, at the time felt like it must of been done at the factory and again this was just based on me just not knowing any better. Here are a few more pics which led me in my thinking at the time, with Parker name and serial number.
Thankyou Troy
