1918 P08 Erfurt, not sure what exactly it is, Revision-commission marked maybe?

Hi Eric,

I don't see any RC markings in your photos. Erfurts have nearly every part stamped with a crown over a letter acceptance / inspector's mark.

However, it's not uncommon to find more than one crown RC on Erfurt Lugers. The "GERMANY" stamp merely indicates that it was exported post war and was applied at that time.

Welcome to the forum.

Hi Ron, There is one C/RC stamp in the sixth photo (rt. side receiver). Best regards, Norm

Thank you, so this is a standard first war luger? What do they run value wise? Is 30 luger less in value than 9mm?
