This gun was most likely made during the Remington reorganization. You can look on the barrel rib and if it says E.Remington & Son it's a Model 1887. If it says Remington Arms Co. it's a Model 1889. Also, the lock plates for a '89 will be stamped Remington Arms Co. while there will be no stampings on the '87 lock plates. In any event, it was most likely made in 1888 or 1889.

Value of guns is not usually given since condition is of prime concern.
