You have a very nice Parker grade 3 16 gauge skeet gun. Proper skeet markings are on the barrel flats. Since the letter doesn't mention the pad most would say it was added which deducts from the value. The 28" barrels are not found as frequently on Parker skeet guns as 26". Your gun is rare and appears to be in fantastic original condition. Parker didn't use the terminology "special skeet" but your gun is very special!
