Can you show a sharper picture of the barrel flats?
Have you acquired the gun yet? .

Does this help? No, have not acquired it yet. Trying to determine exactly what I’d be buying.

Well, I agree with Brian, depending on the asking price and if the rest of the gun is original and in good shootable condition.
First thing to to is to verify how it left the factory, e.g. barrel length, stock configiguration and dimensions etc. First of all send a PM to Chuck Bishop, our research chairman, and pay the $40 for a research letter. He may even be able to expedite the research info if you prepay the letter. .

The seller already has a letter and everything appears to be original but the barrels have been “reconditioned”….whatever that means. I’m having a hard time finding out approximately what this gun is really worth.

If the barrels are still 30 inches it's a keeper. It was made as a show gun to display the finest quality gun that Parker made in the day and was a real show-stopper as it continued to be sent for shows and expositions.
According to the barrel flats stamp the unstruck weight of the barrels was 4 lbs., 4 oz. the lbs. stamp was a broken 4 die and the ounces stamp was a superscript 4. .
