Well congratulations, that sure looks like a real Paramount P13! The serial number decodes to April '72, and that was the last year they were available in full chrome. It is unfortunate that somebody drilled holes to install a bogus "Botticelli" badge, the saddle isn't original and the rear derailleur doesn't look to be correct (post a pic) but still it has to be easily worth over a grand. I'd love to know how long it sat in that pawn shop!
