Identify this shotgun please

I have this old shotgun I need help identifying and would also like any ideas on value please.

Well, I can see three shotgun images and one of a bow being tillered.

From what I can see you have a Belgian-made side-by-side made after 1852 and before 1891.

It is in pretty dire condition, but might clean up well enough to grace a wall - shooting it would require some close examination by a qualified person. Looking at the length of the barrels it is what can be described as a 'fowler' and is probably in something like 12g - the 17.2 stamp is the bore size in millimeters.

Sorry I can't be of any more help until you come up with better pics.

Welcome to the forum.

The barrel proof marking says it is Belgian.
The 17.6 is the bore diameter which equates with a 17.6mm or .693" diameter.

That would be a 14 guage shotgun.

Thank you for the quick response.

Thank you

Click on "Download", then "Show all Sizes". Choose 800x600, then copy image address.

Barrels seem to have Belgian proof marks.

Sheesh. Guess I should have read all the posts first.

Especially the second one, Bill, even though I screwed up on the bore...... :surrender:

Around my part of the country, Pennsylvania,those doubles are everywhere. I just looked at two the other day in similar condition and both were priced at $150.00. In the end it is worth what someone will pay for it.
