Pics are required for any kind of intelligent estimate. A lot of things influence value in old Winchesters. Is it a rifle (26 inch barrel) or carbine(20 inch barrel)? Round barrel, half round or octagon if a rifle?
Full magazine, half, 2/3 or 3/4 magazine? Crescent butt or shotgun or carbine butt? Pistol grip or straight stock? And the list goes on. Your 1894 is worth between $300 and $5000 from your description, not being a #### just the way it is.
