Default Dad's Parker

I inherited a Parker Bro's shotgun. If anyone can determine how old it is amd what it's worth that would be great. I have no intention of selling, but would love to know its value. Pictures attached. John

Serial # 59614 was made in 1890 and it is a grade 2 or GH model, that's about all I can tell you from the pictures provided.

According to the serialization book it left the factory as a 12 gauge with 32" barrels.

Grade 2 GH model- early G grade. Is this a good model? Can it's age be determined or was it actually made in 1890? It's new home will be over the fireplace.
