help in identifying 7.65 mm luger

I have a luger my dad got from a German officer near the end of WWll and would appreciate help in identifying it. When he gave it to me over 35 years ago I took it to a gun shop and was told it was in excellent condition. The serial # is 150 and I also have the matching clip with #150 and another one with #1714. The toggle inscription is DWM and there is no chamber inscription. The toggle knobs are knurled, round and have a hole in the middle, like a donut. The grips are walnut, checkered and without a border. It does not have a grip safety and the thumb safety shows GFSICHERT when the lever is in the down position. There is a N with what I describe as a crown above it located on the left side of the gun under where the chamber inscription would be if it had one. There is also the #50 stamped on the metal below the rear site and well as stamped on a lever and plate located in front of the trigger. There is a stock lug but no grip safety. There is also a N with a "crown" above it stamped on top of the gun between where the chamber inscription would be and the toggle inscription. Any information on this pistol would be appreciated.
