Police Luger Unit Mark

Judging from the evidence of the pistol itself, I believe that the gun retains an original, not a replacement 9mm barrel.
Some points to consider:
Would they have installed a new barrel with the same serial number and suffix, in exactly the same font as the frame, as is the case here? And done it this way several years after initial production?

Also, would there have been halos around the barrel serial number and suffix on a replacement barrel, as is also the case here?
I would appreciate comments on these points. Either way, it does not detract from the interest or desirability of the pistol.
