Default DWM 1908 COMMERCIAL/MILITARY Value

A very knowledgable gentleman gave me the following information about it: DWM 1908 COMMERCIAL & MILITARY; 9 mm; 95% to 98% blue, exellent bore & grips, all matching numbers, marked wood bottom magazine, manufactured with hold open, proofed as commercial/military, s/n 702xx

I apologize for the photo quality.

I am told that only 500 models of this Luger were made. Given the condition and how rare it is, what do you think the value may be?

It is a scarce variation in very nice condition and with a matching magazine! Value is well in excess of $2000.
