Answer
Rodney,

First of all let me say that I do not claim to be an "expert" on antique gun prices/values.

However, that said, I will attempt to help you as best I can. Stevens made several different models of single shot pistols. The majority were marked J.Stevens & Co. Chicopee Falls Mass. 1864 or J.Stevens A&T Co. made after 1886. The "A&T" company appeared on the pistols from 1880 to 1916. Perhaps this info can help you narrow down the info on the pistol that you own.

My research indicates that depending which model that you have, a pistol in "good" condition would be worth between $150 to $500. It is entirely possible that you could have a pistol that is outside of these parameters and therefor may be above or below this range. However, the odds are that your pistol is within all of the above information.
