Help please

I know it’s an Elgin, but not sure of any other details, including, year, model or approximate value? Thanks for the help.

Prewar...I'd guess right around 1939-40. Value depends on your market, but I presume that double headlight alone is an exceedingly rare and desirable piece.

Here's a link to a similar bike that was posted seven years back.

Looks like a 1940s era Monark.

Nice bike!
I think the Elgin you have was made by Murray. I don't know if the serial numbers were the same on the bikes made for Sears back then. On a Murray, it would have an M O with a third letter that would ID the year.
If it was made by Westfield, the number also will get the year.

I figured it out. It’s a 1940 Four Star Deluxe.
