    If it is stamped "520" on the side of the hull, then it’s a 1957 or later. Does it have wood or aluminum gunnels? If it’s a 520 model, it will be stamped "520-XXXX", the model followed by the 4 digit serial number. Does it have a wind shield? That would make a bit of a difference in value.

    I bought a 1956 Commander in pretty good shape, with a windshield for $450. Came with a trailer too. I think i got a reasonably good deal on it. I did all the wood work on it and value the boat and trailer at about $1000.
