There are only 6 known to exist as this was literally the last week of the war they did this so few were made and the only one I ever saw online sold for $20K (2007) and it was sporterized.

With K98k all original much higher now than 2007 my dream find would be one of these at a garage sale unaltered.
My guess is $100K and up

The one that sold started at $350.00 and a guy emailed the seller saying he would buy it if seller including shipping.
Seller said no but he would do $350.00 + $25.00 shipping and the guy turned him down
(I had dealt with the seller so has his email)
He obviously had no idea what it was (and neither did I) but when I asked on a WWII sites about that was when I leaned what it was and why at $20K it was a bargain.
Seller emailed me joking he had no idea what he was going to insure it for and what that would cost.
I jokingly suggested he could afford to fly it to the buyer and hand deliver it
Great story, what is the New lettering???
