Marvin, the info I have is from "The Luger Book", by John Walter. He states: "The numbers are believed to represent the surface hardness rather than a delivery-lot number, as they do not appear to run in any identifiable sequence and match the Rockwell hardness figures given by Randall Gibson in "The Krieghoff Parabellum", p28."
