More views - your pictures are excellent - of the top and rear would tell us more. As it is I can't see if it ever had a stock lug or a date.
From what I can see it appears to have been a military issue Imperial German Army Luger that was reworked - new barrel in 7.65x21mm - after WW1 for commercial sale. The date may have been scrubbed as many were and then submitted for proof as required by civil law. The crown/N is a nitro proof when tested with smokeless powder.
