I was at a friends house yesterday and he showed me a revolver that his father gave to him. It is a Smith&Wesson .38 Special with a polished looking (shiny) blued finish. No serial number. When were guns like this made? Does it have collector value?

Without pics, there is no way to tell.

Most S&Ws made in the last 100 years have serials on the left side of the frame, covered by the crane when the cylinder is latched, and on the bottom of the grip.

If it doesn't have a serial, it may be a Spanish made reproduction of a S&W.
