I agree with Bill. Same applies to my Savage .32 auto with ser # 1234. Just a number, denotes nothing.

But I'm not a collector. I just accumulate.

But I will keep in mind that my low-number 1900AE is worth more.

Now, if you could link the low number 98 to the machine gun company on the grip, that would be interesting. Maybe find a posed pic of the gun crew, and a letter assigning the gun to that crew, and make up a rig to go with it and a diorama showing all the stuff together, with a helmet and belt etc...That would be money...
