1900 German Luger American Eagle DWM value?

For gun in this shape,,, the general finish is likely being original. But could have replaced parts, so it's balanced -- through years of usage, finish worn, parts could break. That's not based on the picture, just based on general observation. So, a guess. But for this one, there is a little bit hint, since magazine bottom was already replaced. It could have other replaced parts on it, so need to be checked.

If I remembered right, frame, barrel, toggle, side plate, trigger, and take-down lever are numbered outside, you don't have to disassemble it to see those numbers. But grip panels and grip safety are numbered inside, you have to take the grip panels off to see them.

if you're looking for a matching gun, and it's matching, then it does not hurt to make an offer. But don't make an offer based on "Test Eagle" assumption, that would cost you.

[edit] trigger number is under side plate.
