I think the gun is an upgrade.There are several of them floating around now.All seem to fall into the serial range that can't be authenticated.Back in the 70s you could buy a VHE 20 for $1000,spend $2500 on engraving,$2000 on wood,and $1500 on metalwork and then sell the gun for $25,000.There were few sources of information on Parkers back then.
A lot of big dealers upgraded guns and sold them as upgrades.After they changed hands a couple of times people thought they were original.
