Hello

Are these stamps correct on a 1906?

Yes. The crown/B, U, and G are German civilian proof marks; your pistol is appropriately in the range where that system was in use. The shield with diagonal slash is the mark of a DWM factory inspector. Your pistol is in a known range where these marks were applied.

This pistol isn't listed in Dwight's amazing Commercial Data Base, but would appear (by interpolation) to be among a group of American Eagle Lugers. Is the Great Seal stamped over its chamber?
