Value of 1918 Schwarzenberger-Nurnberg

Help: my field is old Colt's not German Holsters.
Acquired in a collection of treasures this holster. Before the normal junkyards dogs tell me it's worthless please give me a ballpark range. Condition is excellent, Brown with white stitching. Comes with a period stainless steel mag with wood base. Has a Crown with Roman III stamped on the back. Any help or information is greatly appreciated. Sorry his daughter said her father gave the Luger that was in it away to the "yardman" in the 50's.

You have a Third Bavarian Corps holster. A nice piece to find in excellent condtion. I will let the leather experts provide a ballpark value. Pictures would help greatly in evaluation.
