Here is an open auction:
https://www.gunbroker.com/item/825307411 When it ends, you will find out what the actual market will bear for the gun, as opposed to seller asking prices or gun store ripoff "We'll buy it from you" prices.

Very good shape with the covered hammer. I'd ask $400 - $475, depending on how "very good shape" it's in. Older Smiths are becoming much more expensive. He really should hold on to it. That's a great carry gun. ...pinned barrel and made before MIM parts and the lock hole abortion thing.
