Default Seeking Info re 1912 Magazine

I have a luger magazine different from others I have. It came out of a holster dated 1912 Berlin. In a 50 year old collection of gun-stuff, the holster had been cut up to use with some other kind of gun apparently without the owner realizing the presence of the magazine. I pulled it out to find it covered with verdigris. After cleaning it I found it in excellent condition. Holster since discarded by mistake.

The cartridge pusher is highly polished with some drag marks showing use. The case is plated, probably nickel, turned somewhat gray. The base plug is light red wood with the number 26 and two punch marks about 1/8" high, crowned symbols. The surface is in excellent condition but the marks are struck too deep for me to discern the marking, both look the same. I do have some pretty good pictures. A name is lightly scratched on the side opposite the slot, looks like J.C. Keck, last letter indistinct.

I have only one luger now with its two matching numbered mags so I don't need this one. I will probably put it in one of the auctions. Any info will be appreciated as to value, probable meaning of the butt marks, etc.
