This is an interseting ensemble to say the least.

First, it is IMPOSSIBLE to make any definitive statements based on photos-even the best photos-alone.

That being said, here is what I see...

The cannon seems right, note the halo around the GERMANY. This gives me a warm fuzzy.

The bottom half seems re-blued. I say this because:
a. No halo around revisions comission mark
b. Unit property mark seems blued over as no halo present and inside of the stamping appears blued
c. Ears on right side appear to have been machine turned, inconsistent with normal production machining

Yet, ensemble is still interesting because:
a. Holster is from a RARE maker; have never seen this maker on a Navy holster before
b. Gun saw sea service; a re-furbishment prior to export sale would be expected
c. C0ncentric mag bottom appears period; would like to see it up close.

Conclusion: If it were me, I'd spend the $50 or so to get a good look.
