If the gun was left "as is" it will still appreciate, and probably at a faster rate than the refinished gun.

I don't agree with this notion. Rather, I would think that, in its present condition, its
going to be a hard gun to sell/resell, particularly over time at a higher and higher price.
Certainly someone will want it, but I think its market is going to be more limited, in its
present condition, than if it were refinished.
Consider the KCPD guns. Most have been refinished at least once, perhaps twice, and yet
they sell very well. Some of them are even in relatively poor condition, interenally and
externally, but generally they are presentable. That is the big issue with the gun in this
discussion - it just isn't very presentable, and that will affect how saleable it really is.
