1099-B uncovered stock sale with unknown purchase date

I have shares of stock gifted to me by my father in 2012.  I have a bases for all shares except purchases prior to 2011.  My father has since passed and I have no record to establish a basis now that I have sold them in 2024.  Can I select a stock price at the end of 2010 and use that for the bases for the uncovered shares?
