Mark,
Of course photos would help a lot but mismatched, light pitting and the "patina" suggested by the detail of the sideplate indicate that this is a shooter and maybe not a good one. As such the condition of the bore is important. Russ's estimate seems a bit low to me but not crazy low, especially since you seem to be doing this guy a favor. The real question is: do you actually want the gun? If not, get some photos and post it for sale here. KFS
