Nickle or Chrome Plated 42?

Hi, I am new to Lugers and have a question. Has there ever been a Luger code 42 1940 model that was made in Nickle or chrome plated? I have only seen one other one. The gun looks like it was made this way because of the area of wear seem as old as the gun. It is a standard 1940 / 42 with the German Eagle proofs with the number 655 on the frame and a German Eagle on the barrel. No "P08" on the frame, all the serial numbers match. I also wasn't sure if this was a 9mm or a comercial model, but if has the 8,81 on the barrel which I believe is a 9mm. Thanks for any help you can give me. Paul
