Joe. Welcome to the site, going strictly off the serial # you have quoted you have what appears to be a model 1906 A/E.As to the American Eagle crest the managers or officials at the time preceeding production of the early DWM era felt that it would enhance the likelyhood of foreign sales if the Luger would bear the country of imports national seal. This chamber marking was inscribed with other country,s national crest also.Whether or not this was a prerequisite to importing to the US I do not know and strongly believe not to be.Anyway congradulations on your beautifull gift and I am sure you will be given a lot of responses.
