Even if the kit is complete and in good to fair condition it's value is probable $12.00 to $ 15.00. If the cardboard box is the packaging, meaning the kit itself is still in the original "metal" container....it may be worth about 10% more, possibly $16.50 at the most.

Would need the specific model number.
your shotgun was made in 1947 guns made back then were not required to have a serial no. It was not until the Federal gun control act of 1968 that rifles or shotguns were required by federal law to have a serial number.J C Higgins brand guns were sold from 1945 to 1962 You will never see a J C Higgins rifle or shotgun with a factory serial number.
Several different companies made shotguns marked with the Sears JC Higgins brand. If you will post the model number, we may be able to tell you who made it.
JC Higgins never made shotguns. That is a Sears model number. Shotguns were made by other companies using the Sears brand name- JC Higgins. Yours is likely a High Standard shotgun. If it has no serial number (most did not) it was made prior to 1968. Serial numbers were not required by law until then.
High Standard shotguns made before 1969 did not have serial numbers except for some exported models and the Model 10-A bullpup. Your shotgun has no serial number.
