I share Doc's excitement on your rare find! I would point out a couple of exceptions/additions to his comments. You won't find Vogelsang's inspection mark...for some reason he did not inspect the first batch of Lugers in the early serial number range. If the Luger is a military piece, it will have a small Swiss federal cross on the left side of the receiver and on the left side of the barrel. If it is a commercial piece, it will be marked with a Crown over each of the letters B, U and G (abbreviated C/B, C/U and C/G)on the bottom of the barrel, and a C/B and C/U on the left side of the receiver, or it may have none or a combination of those proofs.

A clear picture of the underside of the barrel showing the serial number and proofs (if any) and the front of the frame showing the serial number would be very helpful. The other photos that Doc suggested are also important. As he said, hope to hear from you soon.
