Yes, pictures are important. Very important.
Choke tubes? How much use? Grade of wood? The more info the better. Range could be $350 to $1,000, and each barrel could be worth $200-250.
Here's my favourite example: I have a 1963 Chevrolet with a V8 in good condition. What's it worth?
or is it this?

Yes, as mentioned, pics and an accurate description of condition would be a big help if trying to determine true value for the particular gun in question. Your description of good condition doesn't really describe anything as your idea of condition may differ greatly from someone else. Perhaps your gun is in excellent condition? That would be a difference in value from "good" condition. Or maybe it is in below average condition. Again, value would be different. Has the stock been shortened or refinished? Does it have a replacement buttplate or recoil pad? Does it function like it should? Have the chokes been messed with? These are just a few things that can also impact value.
Go down to the CGN Community section, and the Photography folder. There is a thread at the top called "IMGUR tutorial to put photos on third party websites NOT PHOTOBUCKET" or something. Follow the steps, it is easier to do than it sounds.

That worked but I would say take some better photos and of both sides. Hard to tell but looks like their is a mark in the rear of the stock on the right side and I don’t see any stamping indicating a bicentennial model. It looks like a standard 1100. Good detailed pics showing the condition of all surfaces is critical and some info as was suggested earlier. Chokes? Barrel lengths? Does it function properly etc? If I had to go by the photo provided and assuming the other side of the gun is in the same condition I’d value the gun at about $450 tops, $600 with the extra barrel and thats assuming everything works and there are no cracks in the wood, the chokes aren’t altered, ribs aren’t dented or bent and there is no rust or pitting.

You say one barrel is a trap barrel? Is it stamped trap? Or are you calling it that because it’s a full choke and/or the previous owner called it a trap barrel? Ok your pics are coming up better now. It’s definitely a bicentennial model. It’s a field grade model. There are no skeet or trap stampings on the receiver and it’s wearing a field dimension stock. It’s worth the same as any other field grade in the same condition.

I would say based on information available it was the other way around. You have a Bicentennial field model that came with a 30” full choke barrel(not a trap stamped barrel) and the guy bought a skeet barrel to go with it. The stock on your gun is not trap dimensions and the gun is definitely not the target grade Bicentennials that were produced.
1976—To honor America’s Bicentennial, Remington brought out four commemorative 12-gauge variations of the Model 1100: 1100 SA Skeet Bicentennial (twenty-six-inch vent-rib Skeet barrel); 1100 TB Trap Bicentennial with regular or Monte Carlo trap stocks (thirty-inch Full choke trap barrels) and distinctive colonial surrounded by decorative scroll work was centered on the left side of the receiver panel,and the gun was marked with the dates “1776” and “1976.” Approximately 5,000 Bicentennial Model 1100 shotguns were sold. You’ll find more detailed info of the four models of bicentennial offered in the second link.
