Angel:
Of the four Parker guns my father owned, a Trojan 12; VH 12; DHE 12, and VH 16, it was the Trojan 12 that he liked and shot best.
I have the gun today, a #2-frame, with 30-inch barrels; manufactured maybe a year before yours, with serial number 230608.
As for condition, it is on the opposite end of the spectrum from yours, having spent many years before my father acquired it knocking around in the cab of a local farmer’s pickup. He sold it to my father when his son-in-law came back from being stationed Europe in the 1950s bearing a Germanic O/U for his father-in-law.
Sometime later, the farmer intimated that he would like to have his old gun, the Trojan, back, making it clear that he did not like the new gun.
My father was sympathetic, but nevertheless said, “Sorry”.
