I have a Model of 1905, 4th change that someone altered the serial number by adding two letters to the front and four extra digits on the rear of the number on the butt. Plus over the years the numbers have become very faint due to normal wear. I haven't lost any sleep over it and my son has already told me that he wants it when I kick the bucket. Doesn't sound like he is worried too much about it either!
I'm with you. If you don't have to take it to the cop shop and present it for registration like we do here in HI, I would not lose a lot of sleep over the number on the butt. It shows in the other spots
Maybe don't use it as a carry piece, or shoot somebody with it, and enjoy as you should.
