I found today at an estate sale a Ithaca Grade 9 Flues? in 28ga. that looks to me as an unfired gun. No blue on tip of barrels missing, 100% case color, inside bores sparkley clean, no wear on trigger guard, no wear anywhere, stock emaculate (in my openion). All things considered equal what percentage of value over a lesser grade and different gauge would the grade 9 and 28ga. be. I don't intend to sell them but shoot some and show the rest.

True and a grade 6 in 28 gauge would be a very interesting gun. No mention was made of any engraving. It would be very hard to report handling a grade 6 without some impression of its engraving. BirdHunterPD, can you post a photo or at least its serial number??

I picked up 8 Parkers the Ithaca and a Fox sterlingworth. The Ithaca may be a 6 i won't know until i can pick them all up next week. I was not aloud to take them down for inspection. The owner of the guns was there and he said in the Ithaca that it had been in the familf for as long as he could remember and was kept in a glass case with a couple of the Parkers and never fired by the family. It is one of the nices i have ever seen. It was listed in a group with all the other shotguns and sold in a lot. I was one of three bidders in a closed bid. I don't know if the inspectors who inspected the guns really knew what they had. I don't really know what i have now either. There is a lot of engraving on this gun with gold (i guess) inlay. None of the screws are boggered up at all. If it was as the owner says great if it has been refinished then some one did a fantastic job. It shows age but know ware if you know what i mean on anything. So i will say like new? Not really knowing. I will have pics next week. Thanks everyone for your help. HEY Chris! I sent my vote in yesterday. Hope y'all have a great time at the Vintage
