Just a general, want to know question. Looking for a general value of a Sears Roebuck over/under shotgun. I really don't know much about it, just that it is an over/under, it has two triggers that appear to be either brass or brass plated. Or maybe gold plated, but I doubt it. It also has a scene etched into the receiver, also brass/gold (the scene, not the entire receiver). The stock and forend are a high polish wood, possibly walnut. On the barrel was stamped 'sears, roebuck and co.', along with 'Germany.' There were other things stamped on the barrel, but i don't remember what exactly they were. It's an absolutely beautiful shotgun. Unfortunately, I don't know the serial number or anything like that. Also unfortunately, I also have zero pictures. Anybody have any ideas on value or just general history/information on this gun?
