FYI - My son left my LC Smith Ideal Grade, with 32" barrels, at the shooting range last weekend. ...any chance you may have found it? I'm offering a reward!
I paid $700.00 for a decent field grade 16 ga LC Smith.

its a 1910 16 gauge not a 12
My book states that the gauge and grade can usually be found on the left front corner of the water table of the frame, the serial number is usually found on the right side of the same water table, on the barrel flats, and on the forend iron. The water table is that section of the frame that is covered by the barrels when the action is closed.

your A H fox Sterlingworth shogun should be marked as far as the gauge is concerned.I would look on the barrels or on the receiver after you take the barrels off.As far as the age of your shotgun is concerned,that can be determined if you supply the serial number of your shotgun.
First question: is this a hammer or a hammerless shotgun? If a hammer gun it looks like potential year of manufacture was 1895. If hammerless, around 1901. If the firearm is in decent shape, you have something there. I have a hammerless twelve bore s x s field grade with the serial number 307204, it looks like mine was manufactured in 1906. You may google "lc smith 12 gauge year of manufacture" and find more information. Best of luck.
