That's what I was thinking but it's kind of a long haul. Could it be an Ocean City?

I emailed, waiting for a response.

The rod guides alone are probably worth that much.

It does looks like a Long Key but with that later white knob handle and the style of double post harness lugs it is probably a #609 or a #610.
