Welcome aboard!
I did not understand your concerns about the back of the frame. Can you clarify, as it may be very important to the value?
Overall at first glance it looks like a nice gun. Actually very nice.
Assuming that all numbers match except the magazine, and also assuming that there is no other damage or problems, the gun, as is without holster, is, to me, not worth $1900. I'd put the gun alone at about $1500. But at $1900 it will be a very long time before you feel like you are not under-water. On the other hand the finish is way above average.
Others may disagree, so let's see...
