1st generation colt

what would you reckon a 1st generation colt with yellow pearl handles and a nickel finish with a badly worn barrel would be worth.

The bbl might not be to worn if it was a BP ser# range gun . If you have a factory letter it would help also It would also let you know if the grips were org. . If you shop around you will see if it has historic connection it could go into the thousands if not it might be in the $ 2000.00+ range maybe less but not likely if all the parts match . Some go as high as 5 digits or more .

I saw in a magazine recently where they auctioned the very first SAA ever made. It went for $865K.
