1916 Erfurt Luger pricing

Mercurio,

Welcome to the forum. More and better photographs are needed. The present photos have a lot of glare. It is difficult to judge from the photos, however, it would appear that this Luger has been refinished, with the strawed parts, such as the trigger, safety, etc. blued (not original), and then perhaps someone attempted to remove the refinished blue? In addition, it looks like the barrel is a different color, suggesting that it is a replacement. These elements would seriously detract from the value of the gun. If you can, please provide better photos, including details of the front underside of frame and bottom of barrel, top of the receiver, close up of side plate area.
