the S&W's I have for sale, I just discovered I have a 629 pined and recessed. SN#849436 I received it in 81, not sure of mfg date.
Does any one know a value for it 6" new in factory box I just opened it for the first time and saw the pin, I know it is rare but don't know how rare? Please help me.

They are not rare, but they are harder to come by than the blued guns by a large margin. The 6" is the most common of the three original barrel lengths for these guns. The 4" and the 8 3/8" guns were only made for one year ('81) so they are more desirable than the one you have, but I would say that your gun should bring between $800 to $1000 for NIB right now.

thats some will power got it in 81 and just looked at it
849 sounds high serial Mine is 8 3/8 and it is 840 is it a -1

Didn't just look at it, didn't take it out of the box, thought is was without pin until last week, when we opened it to check the box, we found a gun in the old soft box that had gone bad. So we are checking all the N frames in the wood boxes.
