Default Model 27 or 28 purchase decision

I don't know a lot about N frames, especially the older ones. I have a 625-8 but it's fairly new.

Now I'm looking for 4" model 27 or 28, I just don't know which one. I don't really know the difference except that the 28 was discontinued in 1986 and the 27 in 1994. I assume there were more 27's made because of longer time in production. I'm probably not going to buy anything built in the 90's.

I'm not looking for a collector or high condition gun but I would prefer earlier production as those seem to be built with some eye toward quality. I'm going to shoot it and carry it hiking so it may get some wear.

I noticed the prices on the 27's seem to be a bit higher or is that my imagination?

If you had your choice which model would you prefer?
