Rick: that number appears in the 16 gauge series for 1914
Have you confirmed that it is a 20g?

In that it was manufactured 108 years ago, it deserves a check and clean with a doublegun specialist before use.

Thank you for your quick response. I was asking for an elderly friend. I will doubled check the serial number and guage.
