Newbie - 1917 Erfurt all matching

I'll try to gain some insight into the re-stamp this weekend (while visiting parents).

Doubs is right - there's no mark at all on the grip screw, and nor is there any mark on the tool in the holster.

Regarding patination, does anyone have any insight into how will the patination develop over time (eg 80 yrs) in the absence of handling or exposure to sun? I had thought that a (if not the) major contributor to patination is handling...
