To the best of my knowledge the Erfurt will have the usual Erfurt proof mark on the wooden base. The DWM does not.

Erfurt magazines also have a slightly more yellow nickle plating, and the crimp on top of the magazine is more D-shaped on a DWM magazine.
It will be obvious when you compare them side by side. |

Left, but early commercial DWM mags also had the crimp that looks like the one on the right.

$10 to $500; maybe even more if it as matching mag that someone needs!
Seriously, most go between $100 and $200.
