    It's a Royal "Quiet Deluxe" if I remember my typewriter models correctly.

    Likely from the 1930s, 40s or possibly 50s.

    Not all of that old and with the damage to the finish and the number of inoperable keys, it's going to need a lot of refurbishment.

    K, i saw a ton of royal quiet deluxe models ,but none of them have 4 silver colored "control levers" .I dont know what they are called, so im calling them "control levers" for lack of anything better

    the closest one i found was referred to as a "Royal quiet de luxe", but no model number or year

    It's probably under that top cowling, but there's nothing to do other than check the whole thing over carefully. The serial number is most likely attached to the frame rather than the casing, but that's not a sure thing either.
