Coffeee, Dwight, and others, Jan Still in his Imperial Lugers, page 11, states that about 9400 1906 American Eagle Lugers were made, with serial numbers 25492-69000. 13900 AE's in 7.65 mm with the 4 3/4 inch barrel were made, serial numbers 25241-68977. Thus both the 9mm and 7,65mm were interspersed within the same serial number range. Unfortunately, this piece pictured appears to be reblued. The usual strawed parts look dark. This significantly diminishes its value.
