Diamond Designs around the handle screws on a Model 37
I have a Model 37 Chief's Special with a serial number of: J1348XX that I inherited at my father's passing along with the original box. From this forum I see it was made between 1958 and 1962. I note that is does not have Diamond designs around the handle screws. Is that common? Does anyone have a more specific mfg date? Thanks in advance for any help provided.

S&W Model 37 J13484X
Jim,
Thank you for your feedback. It is a J prefix, both at the handle end and on the box.
I am guessing it is worth about $600 in today's climate. Is that in the "Ball Game" in your expertise..... if I could ask?
I am merely trying to reduce the number of weapons that he had collected. Get them into hands that would appreciate them and out of the attic.

Just got a 686-4 for a more modern / industrial mate to my K38 five screw. Serial is CBW59xx. I'm guessing about 1996? Guy says it was a Colorado jail gun? She sure is rough, but shoots GOOD!
*action isn't as nice as my five screw, however*
Thanks in advance.

66-1 SN
I've got a 66-1 with the following numbers, looking for some help identifying year of manufacture to see what I have here:
SN stamped on the butt of the pistol: "98k99--"
Stamped on yoke under cylinder: "x39x8" and "A15"
It was passed down to a co-worker from his dad was in LE for many years. He asked for some help identifying it. It is a 2.5" stainless combat magnum from the research I've done on this website. Thanks in advance!

Thanks. Heres a couple pictures... any idea what these other numbers mean?
Pics not working... link to album: https://picasaweb.google.com/100231249891546217682/March32013?authuser=0&feat=directlink
He's thinking about selling. Would you say value somewhere around $550-$600 with box/papers?

The link does not work either.
If you're referring to the other numbers referenced earlier they are assembly and inspector numbers.
A 66-1 in excellent with box and papers - $600 easy.
I assume that's N565xxx.
N5xxxxx ran from 1978 to 1980.
N6xxxxx ran from 1979 to 1980.
