Some info-- There was supposedly four variations of the Swiss 1900 Model Luger.

Type 1 was numbered from 1 to about 2000 and was distinguished by a narrow trigger and a narrow grip safety.

Tpre1A had a 14mm knurled section safety lever and type 1b had a raised 10mm section.

Type 2 was numbered from about 2000 to 3900, plus some rebuilds numbered 5001a to 5100a. All hac narrow triggers, fluted safety levers and wide grip safeties.

Type 3 was numbered from about 3900 to 5000 and had wide triggers, wide grip safeties and fluted safety levers.

Type 4 were German commercial models with 4 digit serial nembers and were like the type 2 models. Someone else will have to give you and idea of value. They will have to have a lot more info though. As you can see from the foregoing, there were at least 5000 of the Swiss Lugers made.
