Hi, I just picked up a Parker shotgun, which has Damascus steel Barrels, serial # 67335, which I was told was manufactured In 1891. The frame size I found on the barrel lug was #3, which I was told is a 10 gauge, and rare. The barrel weights marked on the barrel flats is a large 5, with a small 2. It has the letter E stamped above the serial number on the water table, which I was told makes this an GHE grade because of the flying ducks engraved on the side of the receiver, and what appears to be 2 Quail engraved underneath by the trigger guard. It has a walnut stock with engraving on the stock stating right behind the triggers. It is in nice overall condition, with at least 95% of the original bluing still intact. The butt plate has a circle with a dog's head in the middle, with the words Parker Brothers around the outside. What I would like to know is the rarity of this gun, and an approximate value for my insurance company. I would like to thank anyone who can assist me in advance!!!

Don
