Foxy, it's amazing considerng there were only 2000 "pin" SWs made or wasn't it 20,000. The asking prices are all over the lot but I haven't seen an eary Sterly "Parker pin" gun recently which was close to all there for less than 1000. Always a limited pool of buyers at estate auctions and consignment racks and things slip thru. Dealer had this one from "cash for old gun" walkin which means he had absolutely nothing in it and he's had considerably more than absolutely nothing from me over the yrs so there's sometimes a layer of grease which encourages the wheels of commerce.
