New acquisition 1906 Navy

This is my first Navy. Oh so many things to be concerned about. It's a very interesting piece of information. I never heard anyone make that observation available to us newerbies.
It was advertised as numbers matching.
Sure makes me feel better. I can sleep safely now - my National Guard is. Just trying to be funny. No disrespect intended. I'm a Vet and I value them immensely.
On Veteran's Day, I took some of my WWII stuff to the VFW for display. After the parade and a Vet's funeral. They met for dinner. Quite a few of the persons there hadn't seen any of those weapons - up close and personal. Even the women had an appreciation for the items. Some said they wouldn't even take one look but eventually most of them went by to take a gander.
thanks'Jack
