Magazine for luger P08

Hi together,
I got a magazine for a Luger pistol. On the magazine I read fxo, with German eagle an the number 37. On the bottom I read 2621 and the numbers 1 and 2. What do you think about it? Produced in which year? Original or fake? What means fxo? Magazine is in very good condition.

Heinz, As I suspected, you have a Nazi era mag tube with a DDR replacement or renumbered bottom. The determining characteristics are the larger (than WW2 era) number die set used and that the bottom retaining pin is installed off center. I have many of these available in the $50 range. TH
