Neither of the Lugers in the picture supplied by you are anywhere remotly close to $10,000 in value. A lot of questions are needed to be answered befor an estimated value could be placed on them. The pearl handle grips, with the SS ruines really hurt the Luger. If the SS ruines have been added into the metal surface, then there is a real problem.

As mentioned above, once you start changing, adding or "improving" these pistols, you signifcantly reduce their value.
