Here with box and papers it would easily bring $500 or so. Kyle

I am not sure what it is worth but, I gave $450 for mine a couple of years ago and think I got a pretty fair deal. I need to get some original-type grips for it as it wears Pachmayrs now so, factor in the price of some original grips to it. Mine is a little older (around 1978) and is P & R but looks as nice.

I bought it new in 1994. Paid $369.99 and it came stock with the rubber grips. Although I would like to get some wood grips for it. Nice to know it's worth more than I paid.

I bought a 1999 vintage ANIB 4" 651, the .22 WMR twin of the 4" 63, from a LGS last October for $550 + s/t. I feel I got a deal - and would have gladly paid more for the .22 WMR. I would say that $500-$550 would be fair for a LNIB 4" 63. Any more and you come close to what a current production 3" 63 runs. It would, like the 5" 63 from a few years back, hold eight rounds instead of six. Additionally, the new 3" 63 comes with a HiViz sight - a plus for me.
All three of the below .22 J-frames, top down, 5" 63, 4" 651, & 3"63, came with rubber grips similar to the OP's '94 vintage 4" 63. I prefer the '60 Pro' style wood grips - and fitted my .22 J-frames with them (RB).

$600 plus is the going rate in my neck of the woods. Some have gone for $700 NIB with papers, etc.

Worth tracking down a set of older wood target grips for it.They usually accomodate both square butt guns,and round butt guns like yours.
