1906 Navy Question

My nephew has spotted a 1906 Navy at a hunting/ sporting goods shop near him and I'm trying to figure out if it is worth looking into. The serial number is 68xxa and the price is $2900 with stock (no holster). Apparently the shop owner is ill and they are selling some of his collection. If this a good price what are the important questions to ask when I call? I know little about Navies except that they a frequently faked. There are no pictures available.
