M1917 Austrian Transitional ?

Hi, I was just given this by a 93 year old Jewish lady, pulled out of her basement where it unfortunately received some water damage. Anyway, her husband guarded POW’s in Germany after the war and brought this home with him without her knowledge (that is, until Tuesday). She sent it home with me for my boys to play with or wear on Halloween (thought you guys might like that cool militaria).

Anyway, after a little research it looks like it’s too valuable for my family to keep (I can personally guarantee that if it stays in my house it’ll be junk in just a few short weeks). Feedback from the community as to what it is worth and where to sell would be appreciated. I live in the Chicago area.

Thanks!
