Nickel Plated Colt Cobra

Rainy day today here in Ct. Went out and hit the gun shops. I came across an absolutely mint Colt Cobra with a brite nickel plated finish. If there had been a box of ammo through this little gem I'd be suprised. As this is the first nickel plated Cobra I've ever encountered I have two questions.
Does anyone know if Colt ever shipped Cobra's with a nickle finish from the factory or is this an aftermarket addition?
Any idea as to the value or what a fair price would be?
As always thanks in advance for the responses.

Cobra feed back

In the late 60's to early 70's I had a good shooting Colt Cobra. Yes it was Nickel Plated from the factory. In those days STAINLESS was a dream, only.
 
Swamp Yankee, on the two online gun auction sites (gunbroker.com and auctionarms.com), there have been two nickel Cobras that have sold in the last three months. One was new in box, a 2" with walnut medallion grips. It sold for $505. The other was as new, a 2" with pearl grips, and it sold for $550.

Hope this helps.
