Most likely made in the late 1890's-early 1900's time frame. Iver Johnson made one with a manual safety on the frame. Meridian and Harrington & Richardson made them without the manual safety. The H&R has a hammer mounted firing pin. The Meridian has a frame mounted firing pin. Spain and Belgium also made them. Value seldon exceeds the 50-100 range.

What would be the value of a 32 smithwestern secret service special revolver serial no. 81853?

Assuming that you have correctly typed the name on the gun as "Smithwestern", the best guess is that you have either a Spanish or Belgian copy of a Smith & Wesson revolver dating from sometime between about 1910 to 1930.
