NO!!! A 12 gauge shotgun takes only 12 gauge shells. A 20 gauge shell would fall into the barrel and get stuck about half way to the muzzle. You would be in for a nasty surprise when you put a 12 gauge shell behind it and pulled the trigger!!!
If your shotgun is a 12 gauge pump, then you have a High Standard Model 200 (Flite King). The standard 12 gauge shell is a 2 3/4 inch shotgun shell. It can be anything from #8 birdshot to a deer slug.

The 20-gauge shell will fall into the barrel and lodge. When a properly fitting 12-gauge shell is chambered and fired, it will blow up the barrel and you will have a very bad day.
The value will vary depending upon the specific shell. Go to gunbroker.com or gunsamerica.com and look through their classifieds. You'll find old paper shotgun shells for sale by the box, and by the shell. Good luck.
