Impossible to tell without pictures.
Highest grade engraving with gold/silver inlay.
Impossible to answer. Is it factory done? Aftermarket? If aftermarket, who did it? Are they known in the engraving community? What is overall condition? How much and type of inlay? You need to contact Browning. For about 40 USD you can get a letter on it. Value could be a few hundred or multiple thousands.
Value is too difficult to be accurate without seeing the gun. Condition which includes the amount of original finish and original configuration will determine value. Recommend taking it to a gun shop for appraisal.
You will have to seek a qualified appraiser. Values will vary based on the type of engraving, inlay(s), and name of engraver.
The past tense of inlay is inlaid.

Inlay Lake Wetland Sanctuary was created in 1985.
Most Browning Sweet sixteen are worth between $500 to $800. Vent rib barrells are higher in Value. If it is made in Beligum, the serial numbers match on the barrell and the receiver,90% original, Vent Barrel it could be worth up to $1000. Just because a gun is an A5 made by Browning does not make it a Sweet Sixteen. The standard 16ga Browning was made from 1906 until long after the Sweet Sixteen came out in 1937. To value your gun we would have to know the Grade,serial #,barrel configuration and most inportantly the condition. The gun could be worth from $50 to many thousands of dollars. A mint Grade IV 1922 16ga just sold for $6200 last weekend and it was not even a Lightweight (that is the gun that preceded the sweet Sixteen). The gun was made in 1967. If it is all original and correct, it would sell for $800 and possibly over $1000 to the right group of buyers. In 1967, Browning ony made the Sweet Sixteen in a Grade I model. Any Gold inlay would be aftermarket unless this is a custom order through Browning. Gold inlay is a red flag that says "get this to a professional" for appraisal, to have them check it out. It may be a golden colored filling rubbed into the standard engaving which could hurt value.
The difference is that an inlay is shaped outside the patient's mouth and then cemented into place
