Greetings!

In my latest Pathfinder campaign I've been planning to give a player character a unique piece of heavy armor as a reward for a quest he's been undertaking. The challenge now is to make the armor powerful enough to feel like a real reward but not too powerful for a level 5 character.

I've been thinking of making it a +1 fullplate armor which gives it wearer DR/bludgeoning, since that feels quite fitting for a heavy armor.

How much would DR/bludgeoning be worth in an item? I didn't find any armor special ability or material that gives this quality to an item, so I'm forced to improvise. I think DR 2/bludgeoning would be an approriate amount, how pricey would this make the armor?

DR 2/- (from an adamantine medium armor) costs 10 000 gp, so presumably DR 2/bludgeoning should cost much less than that? What would be an approriate cost, if I made it DR 3/bludgeoning?

Thanks for any help you can give!
