Roy,
If you need just a ball park I would say 1K minimum if it's stone mint and a common piece, depending on the codes it could be much higher. One thing to be VERY careful is make sure it's not a reblue, some can be very good jobs that can fool some experts, I've seen them that good. There are alot of things to look for when looking at lugars so just becareful, just a few things to check: Look at the markings if it's an original blue they will still be crisp and not washed out, the edges should be sharp and not rounded, if it's an earlier piece not a late S code mauser the trigger,safety and extracter are straw colored and not blued, some of the later pieces you can find them blued but not early pieces. There are more but these are just basic things to keep in mind IMO. Hope this helps and good luck with it.
