    This web site will help determine the year of manufacture:

    The SNs, on mine anyway, are on the bottom of the receiver. The number is "split" though; part of it, 8A21 is on one receiver "rail" and the rest of the number, say 600, is on the other.

    So then my ser#A13 710 would be an accurate number? My mother bought this for my father's b-day new in 1955 for $155.00. I have the orgnial recipt. This one has the alum. receiver. Could you tell me the approx. worth?

    Yes, that's the serial number. Condition is important and without pictures we can only guess at the value. In 98%, basically unused, original condition it is probably in the $700-$800 range assuming it has a vent rib and open (modified/improved/skeet) choke. The choke symbol should be on the barrel; * = full, ** = modified, **- = improved. If well used, and with a plain barrel and perhaps a non-original recoil pad, probably in the $300-$400 range. Shotgun values are somewhat depressed now and the Double Auto was never a top collector gun. They're fun to shoot though and somewhat unusual and if I had one from my Dad, regardless of condition, I'd want to keep it and use it.
