I've become good friends with my lgs owner over the years and he holds guns he thinks I'd like then gives me a fair price. What do you think a 59 like this goes for these days ?

Not too high in terms of magazine capacity since I'm sure it came with original "pre-ban" magazines...
... but seeing as how the original Model 59 is not on the MA approved roster, that would pose a challenge for sure.
All I can tell you is the I've got a blued late-production Model 59 still unfired in its original factory box with everything. I'm told it's worth $599 to $699 in terms of a local sale but I'll never sell it so it's a moot point.
The nickel finish would likely add another $100 or so to the value of a blued 59.
