50-300 USD depending on who made it and overall condition.
Sears Roebuck co.
what year was jc Higgins sears and roebuck model 20 12 gauge 583.60 made
Nothing much. Single shot, 20 gauge, and "Sears and Roebuck" on it (it was probably made by Savage) all work against it having a high value. It may be worth $40-$50 to someone.

The J C Higgins model 20 pump shotgun 583 55 was actually made by Sears. Sears and Roebuck & co. owned High Standard and held all the licenses for this gun .583 means House brand exclusive Sears product. 55 is the Sears code for the year 1948
That is basically a Savage Model 94 as made for Sears. Stocks are widely available from internet sources.
