The answer to your question.

It's not worth anything. In fact, those were made of radioactive material, and it's dangerous to even be in the proximity of. You should send it to me immediately for disposal.

In my opinion - depending on condition $ 50 - $ 300. But anything over
$ 150 is going to demand the gun be in almost new condition / no major scratches, etc.

I see one around once in a while is used gun stores / but I don't think I've seen one in a year or so.

These are not that desireable and most owners of them would just as soon use it as a hammer as shoot it.

Unfortunately, they are not worth all that much. Gun Broker and Auction Arms have them occasionally. The upper price I've seen one go for recently is a little over $300, but that is way high for most.

They're decent, workable shotguns, a step above many of the single shots that are out there, but there just doesn't seem to be much interest in single shots unless they're specialty guns from one of the big name manufacturers.

I have a Ithaca Super Single 66 in 20 gauge. Kicks me like a mule, but has never given a bit of trouble.
