Hi Jim,
Welcome to the ward.

You have a fairly desirable first year production 1911 Erfurt. Estimated production is approx. 10,000 pistols.

Estimating a value is nearly impossible without good clear photos of all markings, ser# ,etc.

Depending on the condition.(you said rusted ) it could range from $500- $1500+. The magazine can be replaced with a period correct, but probably not matching, magazine for $75-$125, depending on how lucky you are.

For an example of helpful photos . Click on the "search" option in the upper right corner. Enter keyword" Luger" and go to the drop down then click " All P.08 Military Lugers" Check the one titled "Pistol Identification Please". It has fairly good discriptive photos.
