    Not enough information. Please post quality photos, if you can. The pistol you have, wasn't made in any quantity, and is sought after by collectors.

    Many factors would affect it's value. You have to be specific about the "blue Damage", i.e. is it just loss of the blue finish, or rust/pitting etc?

    Here are instructions for posting photos. Many folks have used them with success, in the past.




    First thing you need is a site to host your picture. What I mean by that is that you will need to upload your pictures to a web site that will host(display) them for you. You should not use your hard drive to host pictures for safety sake. Use www.photobucket.com to host your pictures.

    After you have uploaded your pictures to the site that will host them for you(per their directions), the next thing you will want to do is go to the picture hosting site and view the picture. While you are viewing the picture, right click on it and you'll see another window that should pop up, now click on "properties" and copy the picture URL. If you know how to "copy & paste" this will be a piece of cake.

    Now that you have the picture URL and your ready to post your picture. Do the following, use the following code except take out the "*" asterisk. The "*" asterisk is used here only so you can see the code. In other words if I posted the code without the "*" asterisk you will see a picture instead of the code. Anyways use this code to post your picture..

    Serial number range, puts DOM in 1939/40 time frame.

    As this was a transition period for German commercial proof marks, the marking above the letter "N" is either a "Crown" or a "Eagle".
