Looking for information about an LC Smith I inheritedArchived Message

I recently inherited a mint LC Smith Field grade 12 gauge side by side shotgun, SN192074. It is in mint condition with no rust, minimum wear, fully operable, and just plain beautiful. The bluing is nearly perfect, and the heat treated plates still have the variation you would expect in a new gun. The barrels are armor steel and was manufactured by Hunter Arms Co. in Fulton, NY. It belonged to my great Uncle, and as best I can determine was purchased new in the late 20's or early 30's. If anyone can provide additional information or has a reasonable idea what it's worth, I'd love to hear from you. What a gift!
