Hi John,
You have a DWM Alphabet commercial (formerly known as a 1920 commercial). The lower case cursive 'k' below the serial# is the suffix. The full serial number is 2320k. It was made in 1922 for the commercial market and destined to the US as per the 'MADE IN GERMANY" export stamp on the right receiver. It should be a 30 cal./7.65mm. Check to see if all numbers are matching. Full S# on the front of the frame and underside of the barrel. The last two digits of the S#(20) should be on the trigger, breechblock, rear toggle and the bottom edge of the takedown lever and sideplate. If everything matches, the value is around $850-$1000.
