welcome to the world of Double Shotguns and congrats on deciding to go with the finest shotgun in the world instead of one of those boat anchor 21's or coo coo clock internals Parkers!!!! or one of those stock splitting LC Smiths!

Well. Just as long as the advice is unbiased.
If you are looking for a shooter and not a collector piece -----
Agreed. Buy the one that fits best and you would be proud to carry, either is a nice gun
On the other part of the question. Generally a better condition original will have more collector value than a restored gun
A properly restored gun will have more value than a beater
And it all depends on the buyer
