Mystery solved. The "X" above the serial number on the left side of the receiver indicates that your Luger was captured by the Russians. They were dip blued by the Russians. Also, grips were removed prior to storage so getting the same grips back on the same pistol almost never happened.

Whatever the original finish, it's now covered by the Russian dip blue.
