Default Winchester model 1894 30-30

Hey guys I just received this rifle from my grandfathers estate. I did a bit of searching online and it appears to me that the value is around 1250 CDN. I am basing this on the model, the year of manufacture (based on serial #), and the condition. I looked up the year from the serial #, it shows 1901. Condition-the barrel has lost some blueing and the tip of the stock has a slight 1" crack. The wood is a tad faded but no mars or scratches. Never been refinished. I believe everything is original, untouched. Other than normal use, Gun functions fine.

I am a complete rookie when it comes to appraising. I am rather surprised in the valuation I have come to and I am hoping one of you has experience in estimating the value of this gun. Then I can determine if I want to sell it or not.

Cheers.

P.S. I am working on getting some pics. If there is anything specific that helps to determine value, let me know.
