Welcome to the Forum!
The "Liberty" marked guns usually only bring $25-$50 more than a similar example w/o the markings,, if "LNIB" (like new in the box condition.)
By the serial number you listed,, that gun is a stainless one. That would make it a "KBP-7" model. The box will be a reddish/orange one, with a hindged lid,, with mostly while markings (except the lettering.) Kinda flimsey cardboard boxes,, (it's the weakest style of boxes used by Ruger.)
According to the serial number,, that gun is one of about 800 of that type made. (Prefix serial number, stainless, & Liberty.)
Getting a box shouldn't be too hard due to the fact there wasn't any special markings on the Liberty boxes. Just any red box with the KBP-7 label will be correct. Manuels are dated,, and w/o my notes handy,, I can't give you the correct date markings,, but look for something with the date stamp around 1975-1976. Brown wax paper wrapping is a bit harder to find,, but it's out there. The business reply cards are different over the years,, and again,, my notes are easily accessable but that's another piece of paperwork needed. Lastly,, a brown plain cardboard "bookwrap" shipping carton, with the stamped info on the end would complete the package.
As to value,, if it's LNIB condition, (unfired) then it would be around the $450 mark.
