Painted grips?

who have responded!
I am VERY pleased with this pistol, and, for now, don't intend to strip the paint: the grips are fine for my use as a shooter, and I can always strip them later, if it seems worthwhile - I don't know that restoring the grips would significantly enhance the value of what seems to be just a nice Great War Luger.
Is there any way to determine the probable date of production in 1918 - early, later - from the serial number? The suffix letter is 'h'.

Thanks;
