I haven’t seen one sell for quite a long time but an interesting fact— I have the original Hoffman Arms shop ledger that they recorded many sales, etc. in 1923-1924. The Howe-Whalen bolt peep sold for $25 in 1923! As much as or more than most guns!

This is the closest thing I have seen. I suspect the answer is more than this @ $500 + premium.

I think the last one I saw for sale was 650$ or so and that was a while ago.
