Gun collectors?

I have an early Weston double barrel percussion black powder shotgun I need
to set insurance value.
It's a beautiful gun. Fine twist barrels.
Still has original ram rod etc.
Finely checked and engraved.
Barrel proof marks confirm early 1800s and British manufacture.
Pic of similar one from internet Goggle search.

The pics are a single barrel. The checking and engraving on mine is a bit nicer.

Any thoughts on value?
Goggle hasn't helped.
 
Blue Book of Guns should have it. Hide it, just remember where you put it, I still have one of my dad's guns hidden so well I can't find it.
Condition is all important.
 
gunbroker.com is a great source of current pricing. Check the completed listings as well. Find out if Antiques Road Show is coming close to you.
