Does this look right?

As I look at it with a magnifying glass it looks like it was double struck. Both strikings look to be 25.

The seller was telling me as we were making the deal that it had a "26" in the inside and that it was correct. He said that Mauser did that and nobody knew why. He meant put a number inside one larger than on the outside. I didn't look at it. But now I see that there isn't a "26" inside, but rather a "93."

Maybe I'm just being paranoid. It's my first Luger and I was trying to be very careful with this purchase. I didn't want to go through that "first time mistake" syndrome I read about here.

Overall I'm happy to have a nice gun. I just don't want to think I missed something.
