This is not the same model that the OP was referring to.....
If you intend to sell them as a pair, I would say somewhere north of $2000. If you were to split them up and sell separately, I would say that they would each be worth $12-1500 each (box, docs, tools, NIB).
Post some photos, we all like pictures here.......If you are going to sell them, give the forum For Sale section a shot. Lots of folks around here would love to own a NIB example (me included
)I'm not quite sure what your point is. The link is to an entirely different model which S&W, for some inane reason, gave the "520" designation also.

NYSP 520.
Not the same gun... The "520" model number is one of the very few instances where S&W used the same model number for vastly different guns.
The OP no doubt is referencing the NYSP 520, which is a fixed sight, N-Frame.
Back on topic. I bought my first NYSP 520 around 1983 from J&G Rifle Ranch for $198.50. It was New-In-Box. Still have it. Subsequently I managed to snag a few more in various conditions, but mostly they are excellent. I think that last one I paid cash for was fired, no box, and about 95%. I got it for around $500 five years ago.
Oddly, as these guns became collectable very quickly, the NIB examples are common. Used guns with field wear, not so much.
Based upon what I have seen nationally, I would guess your 520's would bring over a $1000 apiece if they are truely unfired, complete and new-in-box.

Welcome to the Forum, Fentom1. 
Sebago Son and SAFireman are about spot on in the estimates, based on what I've seen among online retailers specializing in firearms in the highly collectible condition you describe.
The wild card is you have two sequentially numbered; there's a subset of collectors who really go for that, so selling them as a pair is likely to net a larger number than individually would combined -- but it'll probably take longer to find that collector.
