The only really collectible are the very early variations manufactured by WALTHER.
All the others will probably become more interesting as collectible pieces in a century.

In recent years, the P.38 has become very collectable and they are commanding respectable prices. Collectors are as particular about them as Luger collectors; i.e., matching numbers, condition, codes, inspection/acceptance stamps etc.

Often considered the low end of P.38s, even a decent condition cyq will bring $1,000... or more. Just as there are serious Luger collectors, there are also serious P.38 collectors willing to pay serious money for top quality rare examples. No, prices haven't reached Luger levels but they are far higher than they used to be.
