Default Browning 12 ga "Twelvette" Info Needed

Just wondering how much someone knows about these shotguns, I recently aquired one but know nothing about it. I know its a 12 gauge but what kind of shells do I use in it, what type of rounds are best? How much are these generally worth for the silver ones? Any info would be appreciated as I know virtually nothing about it. Thanks in advance.

The "twelvette" shotguns often had an engraving of ducks on them and some were silver some were gold I think. I had one years ago that I sold but I can't remeber what I sold it for...
