Welcome aboard and good job checking the "How to identify..." thread!
I'd say you have a .38 Double Action, probably a 5th Model (.38 S&W, NOT .38 Special). Double check the serial number, it seems a bit high. A good photo of the butt might help. I'd guess it was made around 1910.
I can't help with monetary value, but it's not a lot. I wouldn't invest in a letter either. I'm sure others will be along soon with their thoughts.
