Worth of German Luger P08 - never been fired, all matching serial #s.

What you're describing sounds like a 41 (date made) 42(code for Mauser) A semi rare bird, about 7000 made. Look at the front of the frame, under the barrel. There should be a script letter there, under the serial number. Actually it is part of the serial called a 'block'. This tells us more about the sequence of the piece.

The rt side marking are proof and acceptance marks. Should be eagle over 655, or as we say E/655.
then then late test proof.

The 8,81 is the bore measurement, land to land in mm.
