Humped Portuguese k98?

Saw this k98, is it me or do the serials look humped?

I think the numbers look okay, looks like it’s in really good shape. I think the discoloration on the receiver number is from handling, you can see someone’s fingerprint there too.

They look fine to me. The machining marks are evident.

The issue isn't the bolt numbering. The problem I see is that no stock numbers are shown and it is hard to tell if the stock has been sanded at some point (at least when looking using my phone). If the stock matches it may be an okay deal. If not, then I would avoid. That stock would have originally had an external serial number visible on the bottom, below the pistol grip.
