What horn is this?

[evader115]

I was recently given a King 3b of some sort, its serial number is 454501. I have looked for a comparable horn online and haven't found anything. Looking to possibly insure it and I am wondering exactly what it is and its value. It is a close wrap 3-B in silver. The bell is engraved with:
"KING"
"3-B"
"Concert"
"King musical instruments"
"Eastlake"
"Ohio"
The number on the slide is 454501, and the number on the rotor is 220. Thank you for any help!

1969 King 3B with F-attachment

The silver plate adds a bit to its value, I think, due to there being very few of them around. Kings from this era are generally very good.

Prices might range from $600 for a beater and $1600 for MINT condition example.

I owned a late 70s silver plated 3B-F for several years. It replaced a straight 3B. For me, the silver horn was the better of the two in terms of sound quality and response.
