Downside up
 
I know that oddities such as misstruck no. and upside down no. on coins and currency sometimes make them more desirable collector items. I've seen a Luger stamped this way. Would this increase value?

Hi,

Considering the German producer's obsession for quality and quality control, I'd regard any luger with such an 'error' to be a fake.

Thank you.

Hi John,
I would be interested in what you have found. How is it marked?

Looks like I made a newbie mistake. I was looking at this piece from close-up pictures. I viewed the no. on top of the toggle as 60. In pictures of other markings it showed as 09. I've since compared to other pistols and now realize my mistake. Am very sorry for misleading anyone.

John,
No problem! Everybody has a "cerebral flatulation" now and then.
I, more than most.
Ron
