Marlin 336- 35 Remington Royal Canadian

Not familiar with that rifle. If there are any rare or special features on it then it should bring a premium. But gun makers have in the past have taken a normal production rifle and simply engraved something on the barrel or receiver and called it a commemorative. Those rifles may bring a lot more money to some people, but most of them will actually sell for no more and often less than a standard rifle.

For such low production numbers, there sure are a lot of discussions about them online. (Which makes me: A: question the accepted production numbers; and B: Wonder how many people bought them thinking they just hit the "jackpot"...)
The general consensus seems to be that the Royal Canadian 336s are worth only $50-150 more than a comparable 336 from the same production period. Being .35 Remington, you can add $25-50.
Without photos, my "real world" value would be $230. It is, more than likely, worth notably more; but that's my baseline for functional 336s.

In case anyone wants to read up on these. Here is a good write up.

My personal believe is that market value from a non die hard collector point of view is in line with what the article stated.

"Today these 'Maple Leaf Marlins' are a sought after piece for collectors, with just over 3000 total 'RC' guns having been made in the 1960s. This often adds a $50-$200 premium on these guns over and above the same models in the same condition that don't have the marking on them. "

If you can find someone who will pay the premium, lucky you. Might have better luck with someone in Canada than someone in Alabama. I have run into people who could not find Canada on the map and they are not hankering for a Royal Canadian rifle. Now in my neck of the woods, if the barrel was stamped "Roll Tide", you would find some buyers. Especially if it was sold as a Bear Bryant special. That would bring a premium. But not to an Auburn fan. It would take away value.
