A Gibson's serial number is on the back of the headstock.
I got this off the Gibson web site. In 1977, Gibson introduced the serialization method that we primarily use to this day at Gibson USA, Gibson Acoustic, and the Gibson Custom facility in Memphis, TN. The serial number will be an 8 digit number impressed into the back of the headstock with "MADE IN USA" below. The pattern is as follows: YDDDYRRR YY is the production year DDD is the day of the year This would indicate your guitar was built in 1981
of course it's worth it's price . but the scratched serial will degrate it's value a little.
Your guitar was made at the Nashville Plant, TN, USA on October 11th, 1996 Production Number: 262 Information obtained from the guitar dater project (links are not allowed, but google can sort it out for you).
You can see the serial number on a Gibson, on the inside of the guitar.

It is from the year 1592 and is worth $26 and 35 cents

I believe the first and fifth number answer your question 9 and 0, a 1990.
Take it to a Guitar Shop or Post the serial#
The Gibson SG was Gibson's first solid body guitar and was infact originally called the Gibson Les Paul. Later Gibson made was is now refered to as the Les Paul and the original was renamed the Gibson SG. SG stands for "Solid Guitar" because it was their first solid body guitar.
what an incredibly simple question. it just so happens that this was my first guitar. mine is an SG but if this is not yours then you should take it to the shop you bought it and ask.
It ranges from $1500-$3000 but of course there many for much more.
