Found a 58 SKEET. Double beads. 95 % blueing and VERY nice wood. Has SC on bottom of frame ahead of loading gate. Butt plate been changed I think it a Pachmahr. It has gold highlight in scrolling in reciever and highlighted on grip cap. Original??? Owner thinks so. I cant find it anywhere on a 58. Gold but much more elaborate engraving. Any one seen this or have any info. Gun has had very little use and he asking 5 hunde. Whats everyones thoughts. Worth it or he over priced by 100.. Thanx

If that truly is a higher graded 58 it's worth far more than the asking.
From your description it could possibly be a D or F grade, if indeed factory original.
I'd ask the owner to hold it until verified. I don't know how tight lipped Remington's historians are, but a call with the serial number might at least verify grade.
