Collectible Lugers remain in as close to factory state as possible. Original finish percentage, numbered matching parts and overall condition all contribute to value.

The wood based unnumbered magazine belongs with the DWM alphabet commercial .30 Luger pistol. If it's all matching (which you said it appears to be) and 90% original finish with the chipped grip I'd value it at around $1100 or so. It was made around 1923 and could be considered collectible, but has much less value than a military Luger.

The other Luger has a 42 date Mauser receiver and frame and was VoPo reworked, refinished and marked. The grips and possibly other parts were replaced at some point. it's strange to see a shaved off toggle.

Imports like this with markings sold for $600 a few years ago, but this is probably worth a little more as a shooter. I'd estimate one in this condition at $750 to $800.

The plastic base magazine with concentric rings is aftermarket and modern. I can't see enough of the other magazines.

The holster looks quite distressed so it's hard to value that.
