Your photo won't open for me; but typically, two birds in an oval on each lockplate indicates a Grade 3 gun (the the grade mark should be stamped on the watertable, barrels, or on both. A customer could order his birds in any order desired; and you will occassionally see two ducks on one side of a Grade 3 gun. Value depends on many variables; gauge, options, condition, and rarity (Grade 3 guns in 12 bore are not rare) to name a few of the primary considerations.
