Strange Gibson Les Paul

Jim O	Strange Gibson Les Paul I hope someone can finally tell me about my L.P. I got it new back around 1980. Its a STANDARD-candy red-GOLD hardware-EBONY fingerboard (only standard I have seen with ebony). The headstock has two sets of numbers stamped into it. Top stamping is 82562503.Just over the middle tuners its stamped 0232. I have heard everything from "its a factory 2nd" to its a "pre-custom shop, custom shop." I got it from a local, family owned shop. Anyone KNOW what I have, and what its value is? thanks Jim O
