  I believe If the shotgun is marked "Model 1890" it was actually made and sold by the Bannerman organization after they bought out Spencer.
  They continued production and sales for at least 15 years after acquiring the Spencer patents. Because of this the Bannerman produced shotguns are generally worth less then the ones actually manufactured by Spencer.
  Get hold of Roy Marcot's book "SPENCER FIREARMS" he goes into detail regarding this.
