Another "what's it worth" question...

The breechblock serial number is placed on the left side, below the line of the receiver extension, where it cannot be seen without disassembling the gun. On Lugers of this era there is commonly a number stamped on the rear face of the breechblock, next to the firing pin retainer, which has no relation to the pistol's serial number. The reason for this number is unknown.
