Like to sell, used about 10 times. What would be a good price.. it is a repo.

Original? Repro? Who made it? Condition? Pics? You will need to supply more info to get even a ballpark figure.
Depends on things like condition, and manufacturer. Original or reproduction? Any customizations done to it (i.e. competition barrel)?
New Repro 53s cost around $1200. Early England-made Parker Hales seem to be more desirable than others when it comes to used. Used repro prices are not unusual from $500-$800.
Pictures make things a lot easier. I use www.imgur.com for hosting pictures.

One other thing to consider, we aren't reenactors. If a pretty gun won't shoot well it's just a pretty tomato stake. All most reenactors care about is pretty, defarb, period correct. Not many reenactors shoot live ammunition like we do in competition. I say that cause when I was reenacting long ago, our group never shot any live ammo. The guns looked great though.

Hard to tell from your pictures the condition of yours. Could be just lighting or wear on the stock? I'd post some higher-resolution photos.
