Default C96 value?

i've recently inherited a c96 and would like to insure it, but i'm uncertain to the value. i've gotten conflicting reports from gun stores and the insurer, so i figure i should ask collectors what may be appropriate.

all parts have matching serial numbers (frame, bolt, hammer, et c). some small parts (safety, extractor, et c) are salt blue. the finish is original as far as i know (never any record of rebluing). the grips are serial numbered to the gun (stamped). there is no prussian eagle on the front of the magazine, but the other marks are quite visible. surface rust on most of it, unfortunately, but fully functioning otherwise. bore is clean without pits or rust, but not bright. strong rifling. the green bits you may see are fuzz from the blanket. haven't had a chance to do anything but examine, photograph, and oil.

any help is greatly appreciated.
