Welcome to the forums from the Wiregrass! Looking at the Standard Catalog of S&W, 4th Ed. page 105, it appears that your gun was one of 1000 US Army order, 800 blue and 200 nickel in the SN range of 125 to 2199. It must be validated against a list of known SN's in Parson's S&W Revolvers or the reprint of Charles Pate's article in the 20th Anniversary of the S&WCA Journal. Double civilian model values.

Someone who has those references should be along shortly. IMO, the condition is Fair to Good. SCSW says $1250 to $2500.
