I have my Grandfather's 1911 from WWI (that's not a typo). Only has 5 digits in the serial number and the first digit is a "1".
It has no collectors value (family value only) because he had it chromed or nickel plated while on R&R in Paris. That was common practice among NCOs & officers because the chlorine gas played hell on blued weapons.

Pics? That's pretty awesome.
And is it even an A1? I know they made a few changes from the M1911 to the M1911A1.
