Hello Jack,

The commercial one have the following serial numbers:
10.00xxxx for .30 Luger caliber
11.00xxxx for 9mm Parabellum

Concerning the commercial model two types were done:
The 29/70 model similar to the Swiss 1929 model (Mauser bought all tools from Berna arsenal), and the 06/73 model similar to the 1906 model.
<hr /></blockquote>Thanks for the clarification. It is definitely the 11.00xxxx variety, non-commemorative, but I am unsure of which model, 29/70 or 06/73. I would imagine the second set of numbers on the serial designation is the year of production? I will research the two different models and find out which it is.

Thanks again for the expert assistance,
Jack
