Need history & (maybe) value information...

Hanko, Deffinately a commercial model from the markings you describe. Crown over N is the commercial indicator. No date on chamber does too. Most DWM militaries had the date on the chamber after 1910. I say most because there are always variables, some were ground off etc. Sounds like a nice pistol. The magazine should have a serial # if military, blank if commercial and Germany if imported to an English speaking country. Ditto for the pistol. If no Germany stamp it was brought into this country without being for sale. Commercials are generally less valuble than militaries. 9MM would make it more valuble as a commercial. Probably had a barrel change as most commercials of this era were in .30 cal.

Is the barrel serialed to the front of the frame? Are the serial #'s exposed or hidden?

Without seeing the pistol and relying on an accurate discription I would value this at $700.00 to $800.00. The fact that it is 9MM is a plus. Of course there are many things that could affect this estimate. Mismatched parts, barrel that does not match the rest of the pistol etc.

Lets see a photo and a little more info...Jerry Burney
