Charles,
You won't necessarily find an exact match on this site. There are many different variations of inspector marks on DWM Lugers. The marks on your 1914 are one of the variations. Each individual crown over gothic letter is an inspectors mark, the eagle is a DWM military acceptance proof. This exact marking on your Luger is shown in "World of Lugers - Proof Marks" by Costanzo in the section for 1914 DWM receiver proofs on page 288.
