index.php?t=getfile&id=6828&private=0index.php?t=getfile&id=6827&private=0I just traded for an early Contender with a 4 digit serial number (97XX). It is in almost pristine condition and I wondered if it was a collectible or just interesting?index.php?t=getfile&id=6829&private=0

I'd put it in the interesting category...

About the only highly collectible I know of are the eagle frames and flat-sides. I don't know enough about the oddities to help out that way.

For those who collect the commeratives... if it's been shot it's no longer worth a premium.

Honestly, I have all the barrels I want or could ever need..... wait, look, there's another!!

I did some quick checking and found one that sold a few years ago for $450 with this holster

I've been told that these were going through a highly dersirable phase - at least at one point.
