Hello all! My uncle bought this new in the 60s and has been in the family ever since. What's a fair market value for a beautiful, 12g, gun like this? See attached photos. https://flic.kr/ps/42UXQQ
That gun was not manufactured until 1971. So, what's the 'real' story? On the left side - there is a signature near the bottom right receiver extension to the butt stock and may be one in the game scene under the trailing pheasant. Would you please confirm those names?
My uncle passed this year and left it to me. Besides some of the info I found by doing some internet searches, all I know is he said he purchased it in the 60s, but I'm sure you're right as he was very old when he passed. He also said it was a "Midas grade" and lived in Chicago but was in the military so I’m not exactly sure where it was purchased. The signature is master engraver Jean H Diet.
