Do you mean the gun is U.S. marked or that it is the "Government Target Model" without the "U.S." marking but in the 210 number series?

My source, The Blue Book, says that the U.S. marked pistols start at serial number 210-00001 and run to 210-18500, below the number you give.

U.S marked guns range in value from $300 to $1000 or so; the same model without the marking ranges from $125-$350 or so. Only some 25 of the "U.S." guns are believed to be in civilian hands.

In other words, that gun with the "U.S." marking would out of the known serial number range and likely a counterfeit; without the marking, the gun is not worth anything close to $500.
