Need Help pricing an Old Old Colt Woodsman

[Geblore]

I have a very old Colt Pre-Woodsman and I need hlp getting a value for it. The serial Number is 4491. It was made in 1917 in the first series run. It is in great shape. 90-95% bluing left. It has afew handling marks, but nothing bad. The grips are origninal checked wood with the Brass Knurls and diamond cut around the bolts. It has all matching serial numbers and original mag. I've seen these early colts with alot high serial numbers selling for $1800 on gunsamerica. Its the Target model with adjustable front and rear sights, a 6 5/8" pencil Barrel.

Any Help would be appreciated

Here are some pics:

I sold one the same configuration as that, not quite as nice, last year for $700...

I know nothing about the price of one of those, but that is one sweet plinker.

Looks like original finish.

Not sure what you would get on the EE, if that's original and has no defects, it's a nice collector's piece. Good idea posting here, maybe you'll get a PM offer.

Ask Joe Salter, he might know if it's worth moving to the USA and what pain that brings.
