Problem dating a 3B

[Windmill]

Good evening,

I've come across a 3B for sale, but the serial numbers show 295xxx.... Dating it around 1949 according to the serial number chart. When I look at the pictures, seems like a 80' 3B to me... Your opinion ?

Thought so. What can explain the serial number ?

How much are these worth ? Stockings seem to be fine although not new...

Serials reset at some point. A few hundred, they are still good horns

King restarted their serial numbers at 100,000 around 1985-1986.
