Kidvett,
I agree with Doubs and Garfield about Erfurt Lugers, I love them, but, I say that to all my Lugers.
Some collectors don't like them as much as DWM and Mauser Lugers as some Erfurt lugers do not have the same finish as those by DWM and Mauser.
My Erfurt Lugers are a 1911, a 1912, a 1914 a 1916,17 & 1918.I dont have a Erfurt 1914 Artillery butI do have all the DWM ones and Persian artillery Contract.
The 1911 and 1912 are both unit marked.
Below is a photo of the 1911 which was made in the first week of production of 1911, serial number 6xx with no suffix.
Most early Erfurts have a interesting history.
You have made a fine start to your Erfurt collection
Regards
Murray
