Thomas,

Even though they are scarce. 1920 & 1921 military Lugers haven't gained a big following among collectors. They don't have the "Romance" of WWI Imperial Lugers, nor the "Mystique" of the WWII Nazi Mauser Lugers.

I have a different view, because I have studied the Weimar Reichswehr era, and have found it to be a fascinating time in Germany's history.

If it was unit marked, the value would be enhanced somewhat. In todays slow market it is worth $1200 to $1300. In an optimistic market, maybe $1500 to $1600 on average.
