I have a 3 screw Ruger Single Six .22 caliber with a .22 magnum conversion cylinder. The serial number is 20-11665. I cannot find anything about this pistol on Rugers site regarding model number and year produced. I would greatly appreciate any help regarding value and information related to this gun. Gun was left to me by my father, would just like some more information.
 
Did you look here?

Looks like it shipped in 1955.

I bought a like-new old model 3-screw single six (non-adjustable rear sight) with the magnum cylinder in the little bag for $199 in a local pawn shop about a year ago just because it was a good deal. Normal price would probably be more in the $300 - $400 range.

Easiest way to see what it could possibly sell for is to get a Gunbroker account (free) then look at the ones that have SOLD, not at the asking prices. You can't see the ones that have sold without an account.

EDIT: Just looked, one in excellent condition with both cylinders, in the box, 1955 ship date just like yours, sold last month for $400 with 10 bidders.

Nah, thats a 1969 model. Does it have adjustable sights? It may be a super single six. NIB with all paperwork around $550-650.00. I just sold a 1972 model.
 
Sorry, it is a '69. mcb66 is right. Too early in the morning, wasn't paying any attention to the prefix.

Yours is a '69, the one I linked to that sold for $400 is a '72.

It's on the same Ruger serial number chart linked to in post #2, just have to make sure you include the "20" prefix when you're looking!
