Opinions sought - First Luger - P08 Erfurt

The toggle crown certainly does look faint, but the break in the line of the crown on the rear edge is common, so maybe the stamp was just getting worn?
The numbers on the frame do look suspect and may well be a deal breaker as Don mentioned. Maybe a restamp? Some more close-ups MAY help.
Otherwise it looks like a run-of-the-mill Erfurt, functional but certainly not eye-candy.
