Lincoln J. is a well enough known name. They "molted" into an engineering company and recently sold out their gunmaking. They seem to have been inclined more toward decentqualitynuttinspecial boxlocks. That pretty much describes the gun shown. LJ name is a Brand Value level three (BV3). Original Quality grade is, oh, say OQ7 (third level BLE/second level BLNE). Current Condition level would be maybe CC6 (shootable but needs some repairs and restoration). BV3-OQ7-CC6 = $690. If it is a non-ejector gun, you can make a case for OQ8 and if the barrels are questionable for shootable without repair, you can make a case for CC8. BV3-OQ8-CC8 = $200. 16 gague gets maybe a 1.5X bump for being a hot item - $300 to $1135. I realize that is a big window, but we don't have a lot of really vital details about the condition and quality.
Hope that helps some.
