Default Simson mag?

Is this a mag for a Simson Luger, or a Simson replcement mag for another Luger?

If it has one eagle 6 (or eagle 46), then I consider it a "replacement" magazine.

I expect an original magazine to have two eagle 6's, one top, one bottom, the serial number to be centered and one smaller eagle 6 on the spine.

Plus the body nickle does not look right to me, but it may have been "cleaned", as I expect simson bodies to have almost a varnish yellow color to them.

Mike,
Ask for additional pictures, esp. of the base of the spine of the mag. It should have a Simson eagle also.
