Yes, clearly Barney's 1905 image is the LV1.

But I have no idea where the LV nomenclature comes from. I picked it up from an earlier collector, probably Thojil or Art Bissell.

Fairly sure that 124463 is in fact #5 but will have to check. The image is somewhere in this forum. Edit: yes, it is #5. SN is debatable though, as discussed in the thread. It's even your image! https://vintagegruen.org/vgforum/index.php?t=rview&th=12 94&rid=693

#3 is incredibly rare. I've only seen three of them, all with SNs of 132k or higher.
