Going rate for pre-29 in box?

The presentation case is the slide or button latch variety that was used from January-September 1956. It should be numbered to the revolver on the bottom in white grease pencil.

Well, I went ahead and bought it, I will send an email requesting the serial number.

Edit # S1606XX
It is almost impossible to tell when a certain serial number shipped, but considering what Bill said about the dates for your presentation case (assuming it is the original one for your .44 magnum), it stands to reason that your gun is a “1956 First Year” gun. Those are worth more than those that shipped out later. I believe you got a winner! Thanks for sharing.
