Default How rare is a Model 10-7 5" Factory Nickel?

I came across one today. I keep running into interesting S&Ws. I am not a wheel gun guy at heart but I am starting to like S&Ws.

IIRC the gun is pinned which if my research is correct puts it somewhere around 1979. I can get the serial number tomorrow to really nail down DOB.

I am not a nickel gun guy but this one looked nice and clean. Maybe 95% to my untrained eyes. What intrigued me was the 5" tapered barrel. Seller had correct grips, did not verify if it had matching #s, matching box but no tools or other goodies.

I have not come across one before. What is it worth? Educated me....

They are uncommon; the majority I've seen were Detroit PD issue and stamped on the backstrap as such. We need photos!
