It appears to be a very late war Mauser-brand P08, one that was probably unissued or certainly saw little battle time. Holsters and "bring-back" authorization papers do help the value of the gun quite a bit. Can't tell if it is all matching but I'll gues that it is. You alluded to value, so I'll roll the dice. IF it matches, has the correct magazine, if the holster is the correct holster appropriate to the year and condition, and if Grandma can find the papers, I'd ball-park if at a bit over $2k. Now more photos and info. may change that guesstimate, but that is my $.02 worth.
Now we'll see what the others have to say.
Welcome, and that is a very nice legacy that you have been granted temporary custody of. Is there a story to go along with it?
