I never got intothe collector end of guns even though I have a few that could be considered collectables.
I personaly have never seen a Marlin 62. so they must be as scarce as chicken lips. If I'm not mistaken there were some built in Hornet and 218 Bee. The 30 Carbine and the 256 suffered the same fate especially in the Ruger Pistols. The pistols were great, the rounds just died and never became popular.
Numerich/ Gun Parts has a web site that has a bunch of old duffers, sorry Rocky, on it and they are pretty good at tracking down the going price on older guns. Two of the best are Seaweed and Zeke. Address your question to them.
I hope you find your rifle is worth more. Knowing their scarcity and the condition you say yours is in seems a fair price to me.
Best wishes, Bill
