500NA couple of things will determine it's age.
(Apart from looking at records which I don't know if they are available).
REBOUNDING HAMMERS ?
What type of fore end release ?
Amount of engraving ?
BP or Nitro proof ?
Proof marks will give you a range of dates it can fall into, ie 1898 - 1904, 1905 - 1925 etc
Suggest look at a few web sites and find similar no name guns and see what they are being sold for.

500NIf you post a picture of the proof marks, quite a few people can answer the question straight away.
Even if you describe them, we could probably do it.
