Winchester Model 12 Value

I currently have an older Winchester Model 12 I am considering selling or trading off. Serial number is 1600483 I believe it was manufactured in the early 1950's. The gun has the corn cob forearm, a 30 inch barrel with vent rib, chamber is 2 3/4 inch, I have only seen one other gun simular at Cabelas, the only difference was it was chambered for 3 inch and called a "Heavy Duck Gun". The condition of my is ok, the blueing on the receiver shows wear but no rust, wood in a good to excellent condition. The receiver was tapped for the fitting of a peep site (which I do have). Any info you can give me about this gun and its value would be appreciated.

I can't remember anything else about it right off hand but was needing a ball park value on it.
If a field grade with a plain round barrel...they go 4 about 150/200 for a gun good 4 parts to about 450/550 for one in the mid to upper ninety percent range....LNIB is anybodys guess in an auction type setting...
