Over the weekend I had the chance to examine a W.W. Greener 10ga serial no. 41203. Gun is tight and on face. Does not appear to have been shot much. Rounded PG stock with 14" LOP to checkered butt with horn heel and toe plates. Splinter forend with ebony tip. Nice wood with very fine checkering. Finish is 90% Frame is nicely engraved 40-50% coverage. Engraving is still sharp. Trigger guard tang is engraved List No. 55. Double triggers naturally. Case colors are nonexistant except for water table and underside of forend iron. Water table and barrel flats are stamped with Birmingham definitive black powder proof, a 10 over C inside a diamond, followed by Choke. England is also stamped on the water table as well as on the barrel flats. Barrels flats are also stamped with 11 at breech and the barrels are stamped with Birmingham provisional and definitive black powder proofs as well as Trade Mark with Elephant, serials numbers on each barrel match serial number on frame and forend. Barrels retain 80% original blue with no dents, dings, or pits. A pigeon is engraved on the rib at breech followed by locations and a series of dates of events won. The barrels only measure 29 3/4" however at the bore the barrels are touching.
I know nothing about the value of black powder Greeners.
Bottom line do you think its worth $2,700.
