Smith 44 revolver identification help

[Jerecole]

I bought a used smith and Wesson .44mag revolver a few years back from a friend. I want to sell it but have no clue what model it is, how much to ask, or how to describe to condition(percent). I guess I'm asking if a knowledgable forum member could send me their email so when I get home Tom I can send a bunch of pics and they can help me identify it and possible give me a ballpark value. What I do know is that it is a 6 shot, .44mag, with the original finish. My email is Jeremyfredco@hotmail.com . Again per forum rules, I am only trying to I'd it and not sell it in this part of the forum. Thanks for the help.

I'm not an expert but you can try opening the cylinder and seeing if there's a model number next to the hinge.

Really old models don't have anything engraved there.

If you open the cylinder the model number should be stamped on the frame under the crane (for example, 29-2 or 629-3). A .44 mag is most likely some variation of the Model 29 or 629 -- but there's a lot of variations in those models. If you can post the pix here it will help with assessing condition.
