Last year I bought two just like these from a seller in Canada, both were in very nice shape. Books say they are some of the last luger mags made in the "cadium", although I do not know if they are nickle or cadium plated at all. They appear to be stainless... Let me see if have a magnet around here... So, I believe they were made mid to late 1930's, before they went blue...
All three of the cadium / nickle ones are the same, yet their bases are differenet size stampings (I could not get a good picture. The stylized H for haenel I have been told? Looks the same, the proof per se, while the number stamp for the 1 or 2 and the serial numbers are obviously different stamps...
