picture test early luger

[Ragnar]

Seeing as this seems to be a non- matching numbers gun I’m thinking of replacing the side plate with a authentic DWM plate that would at least give it a correct look.
Just out of curiosity what would a ballpark value on this Luger be?
I did field strip it and found a number 76 on the bottom of the barrel extension. Also the recoil spring is the early type not the coil spring.
Oh,and the grips were correctly numbered 08.

I'm really curious about the side plate- I've never seen any Luger with one like that. I hope someone on the forum has an answer, they probably will.
