My readings in The Dutch Luger book indicates that some Dutch lugers (Navies, P-06, and P-08 models may have had a small brass unit ID tag soldered in this postion. Later Dutch lugers had a larger brass plate soldered to the left side of the frame.
Could this 1914 Navy have had one of these small brass plates soldered at this location at the top of the front of the trigger guard...?
Just a wild guess from a luger beginner...
