Anyone Know What This is Worth?

My Mother-in-Law is asking me how much her gun is worth. It's a 1916 9mm Luger, with proof marks similar to, but not identical to, proof mark # 15 as shown in the technical information section of this site (three characters followed by a heraldic eagle). This indicates it is a DWM Luger from 1914-1918, which is consistent with the Manufacturer's logo (DWM) and date. The serial number is 9021 with all pieces matching (21). There is one magazine but it does not match the serial number of the gun (and is not blued). It has a typical luger military holster with takedown tool. It has walnut grips (good shape), and the bluing is 70%+, with some light corrosion on the high points. Front and rear sights are fixed. Bore is in good shape. Anyway, I appreciate any opinion offered, and thanks for reading.
