These were serial numbered everywhere also. If its an origonal, nonimport, good + condition, mostly matching (floorplates & barrel bands & buttplates usually got swtiched) Mod 98k in good plus condition then it can be worth up to $500+. In 1935 it might be a mod 98 rework with a cut barrel & replacement 98K stock and a replaced turn down bolt and front sight. These were stamped on the bolt side of the receiver under and parallel to the rear sight with S42, the rebuild mark. 1935 is an early year for 98Ks, the 98 reworks were definitely war horses & used in the Polish & France campaigns.
