Ihave a HSc mauser that I was told it belonged to Hermann Goering the serial number is 772673
Is there a way to prove this.
The holster to the gun has the initials JHG and under that it has the number 44 does this mean anything
-
It is extremely unlikely that it belonged to Goering. It is not uncommon to have this kind of story made up about a souvenir bring back. If you don't have some documentation to proof the claim it is most likely that none exist. So what you have is a Mauser HSC. Please pardon the messenger.

My father was going to sell the gun to a gun collector 40 years ago and he supposedly if authenticated it and offered my father $5000 for the gun which my father turned down at the time so there might be some credence to this and what about the initials on the case.
Is there a way to trace the serial number.
-
Jhg is the coded name of the holster maker.
Nothing to do with Göring's initials.
There is no way to trace back the number. So without a decent paper trail it will be impossible to attribute it to him.

I would like you to post photos, if you can. Always enjoy looking at the beautiful HSc.
