Revelations sometimes happen and one of mine was a call to evaluate, along with others, the worth of an unsigned SXS, Brimingham proofed, superb craftsmanship.
Everyone looked intently for a name, or hint of one. No one considered the plainly visible quality features. Objectively it was a superb SXS boxlock ejector which the learned company seemed to agree would have to be valued at under an AYA No 4 due to lack of a name. That was the day I learned a lot about shotguns and lots more about people.
An excellent example of why sorting OQ from BV is necessary for valuation. This is a poster child case of where a functional bargain could be had. Be warned, though, that the market will value it low if/when you try to sell it.
