Value Estimation

Dear Members

I recently obtained a Luger P08 and now I am wondering, what it could be worth, since I think of selling it.

With the aid of this great site, I've been able to identify my Luger as the following gun:

It's a Mauser, built in the "Oberndorf Werke am Neckar" (byf), stamped 41 on the chamber.

Serial numbers (72XX) match (even both Magazins) except for the firing pin and the barrel, which has the number "753" below a "N", imprinted on the underside, which brings me to the conclusion, that the barrel was replaced in Juli of '53, probably in Eastern Germany.

There are some markings, indicating, that the gun was checked during WW2 and after WW2 in Cologne.

Finish is around 95 %, some slight freckling, barrel is clear and sharp.
The grips are in good condition, though I doubt they're really original.

So, if anyone has an idea, what the gun's worth could be around, I'd be glad if he told me.

Thank you in advance
