If it is in factory packaging then it is unlikely to be anything other than a No4Mk2
If it is,I have bought 3 of these in the wrap in the last few years so I'll list what I paid to try and help with value

1: four years ago as a private sale after looking for a long time and I was prepared to pay whatever it took to get one. Paid $1200

2: three years ago at auction for $670 with no bayonet and a fairly tart wrap but still sealed-not sure the price included the buyers premium or not.

3: under a year ago on Trademe for $1001

I have sold one of them to someone who begged me for $1500-this was a price I said to discourage him from buying it but he had been looking for a while

So I think Stevens price estimated range is a slightly high unless a biding war started-and they are the sort of thing that that could happen on as while there is plenty of them in NZ they aren't something you can pick up whenever you want and more and more of them are being unwrapped to be used as shooters.
