Commerates the 100th anniversary of the Secret Service in 1965. If absolutely NIB, never seen the light of day, with everything just the way it left the factory in 1965 - in the 1000-1200 range.
Smith & Wesson did not mark any revolvers "Secret Service Special." Exactly how is your revolver marked? sales@countrygunsmith.net
No such weapon made by S&W
What you describe was not made by S&W. Value would not likely exceed 50-60 USD
NO
Never made by S&W
Well, those are 5 chambers, not 5 cylinders. Bearing NO connection to the US Secret Service, the name was used by both A J Aubrey and Harrington & Richardson. Value is in the $100-$150 range. Think the term you were looking for was top break revolver.
Despite the markings, these were not made by Smith & Wesson (marking refers to the caliber) and they were not used by the US Secret Service. Depending on condition and finish, these are typically $50 to $125.
In this case, Smith & Wesson refers to the cartridge, and not the maker of your revolver- which was not used by the US Secret Service. The distributor was the Fred Biffar Company of Chicago, and were made by a least 4 different companies, including Meriden and Iver Johnson (whoever gave Fred the best price got the order) These were inexpensive revolvers, and would be worth $50-90, depending on condition.
