1913 dwm

Hi everyone, thank you for this site. This is my first post here. I inherited a 1913 DWM with a s/n of 259, does it make much difference in the value if you have a lower #? I have done all the research i could on this firearm. I received it with a 1938 leather holster and tool. Matching numbers except magazine, unless it was pulled apart and reengineered. It also has stamped "45. R.M.G. 71." on the front handle strap. The bluing is about a 90, guessing from what i have seen and the grip is worn a little in all the right places. If anyone can provide a little guidance on the s/n and the 45RMG71, or point me in the right direction as where to find this info please do so. The story of how this landed with me is that my grandfather brought it back with him from WW2. I will try to post a few pics as soon as i figure it out.

thanks for reading
