Here is a cased pair of sidelocks. Not low end nor high end but been for sale > 1 year. Boxlocks would fetch much less in general. https://ellwoodepps.com/tobin-arms-sxs-hammerless-non-ejector.html
Set triggers are on rifles, you mean "double triggers". How does yours compare to either of these? There is definitely a local interest in these guns in Canada - more so than elsewhere - but going to have to post pics for feedback on value.

Tobins are neither true sidelock nor boxlock. Kinda a hybrid action but look more like a sidelock. They never made a boxlock. Their value in my mind is their relationship to Canadiana. The stocks are pretty droppy but I can shoot them. If it is in “excellent” condition, it would be rare. Most were working guns and were well used. An “excellent” example, even if it a basic model, might be $600ish. Maybe more to a collector.
I’d love to see a picture.

Look at the opening lever. Tobin's were famous for the lever being left of center. If so, it likely has seen some mileage. If the base model gun, it would have to be darned nice to fetch beyond $600.00.
