What's it worth?

Art, the script letter beneath the 214 on the frame front is an "E"!!! This makes me believe there is a letter on the top of the chamber of a "G". If true, the Luger was completed in 1935, not 1936.

The photos are nice, but the flash hides any decent attempt to determine the percentage of original blue remaining. It does look like both grip straps are going patina. These pistols were "rust" blue finished so it is expected.

The newly added photos don't provide much in the way of good additional information and you haven't provided a photo of the data (markings) on the bottom of the magazine!!!

I'm afraid this is the best I can do for now!!!
