Hi Tom, and welcome to the forum.

If you're in the Raleigh area, I'll be helping at the Gun Show at GRNC's booth and could take a close look at your Luger on Sunday.

Double check to be sure it's a 9mm Luger. A no.2 pencil should easily fit down the muzzle. If it doesn't or is tight, it's a .30 Luger caliber pistol. The barrel length looks like it may be in .30 Luger.

The serial number of your Luger is the 4 numeric digits and one script suffix letter that are on the front of the frame above the trigger guard. I can't make it out due to focus in your third picture.

This one is in a remarkable state of preservation.
