The magazine is from the wrong era and a correct model would probably increase the value a bit. And maybe a straight swap for what is in it now.
The second photo makes some parts on the left side look "beat on", particularly around the sliding safety bar. Just my eyes?
I too feel that Erfurts were not as nicely finished as the DWM models, but that will probably arouse the ire of some fellows onboard here. They have never been accused of being dis-functional or inferior.
Overall a nice honest old gun. I'd ballpark it at around $1000, but you probably need to take it apart to check more numbers and to clean it thoroughly, using great care with the grip panels.
Welcome aboard.
