Ernie,

Welcome to the Forum.

Your neighbor has a very rare and very valuable Luger in what appears to be exceptionally good original finish and condition.

It would be very helpful to see pictures of all markings on the magazines and any others on the holster.

One like this should be individually appraised by an experienced appraiser with a good background in Krieghoff Lugers. Ben already mentioned Simpson's Ltd in Illinois.

My best guess is somewhere in five figures. Probably closer to $20,000. I am not an experienced Krieghoff appraiser.
