What do you think of the grip rivets on this late war Anton Wingen, Jr?

All other HJ Knives i got have much shinier nickel rivets. So i'm thinking they must be replaced grips or something.

they look fine and original to me, sometimes you see magnetic rivets some times non magnetic, i was gathering info on which had what, on the waf hj database previously, but looks ok from here
 
The used metals for the rivets were probably depending how the war draged on...

Does this one have a non-magnetic zinc hilt as well? Looks like a little blue showing through on the finger-guard. What is the date Fin?

I just ran a magnet over the hilt and it didn't stick so i think your right there.
The year on the blade is 42'
