If it has the original stocks I'd give $525-$600.

If I saw one for sale here, which I haven't, I would expect to see $650 and UP to the heavens...

98% and nickle I'd expect to see at least $650 and wouldn't be surprised at $800.

I agree 'cause it has two things going for it, nickel and 4".  They made a much smaller percentage in nickel and the same goes for 4" N frames, except the model 28.

Thanks all. This one is $625. Sounds like a fair price, but not a steal.

$625 is a pretty good deal for a 4" P&R N frame.

The last 4" nickel 57 I saw around here was about a year ago. It was very nice example complete with presentation case. I was about to say I'd take it, but then I got a closer look at the price tag that was marked $1 650.00 and noticed the 1 over by the dollar sign.  I handed the gun back to the gentleman, said thank you, and slowly backed away with my tail between my legs. 
You did alright at $625. If I could find one in the ~$600 range I'd be happy.

What can you buy new out there for that price that is even half as good?

Little late but 700.00 in that condition. Great investment IMO.

Got it. It has a very faint turn ring on the cylinder, and a small chip on the bottom of the butt. No flame cutting, tight, and slick as a whistle. I think 98% was an accurate description. I'm happy with it. Thanks again for the help.

I agree with these two guys. Not all handguns are the same or can be evaluated by description. Caliber, finish, condition, scarcity and collectability all have to be considered. I believe these two posts are on the mark...

You need a set of Executioner's stag stocks for that #57.
