Minox company had certain serial numbers that could not be sold publicly, and the one found in the Paine's was one of those numbers. Not surprising as the Paines and Oswald were all intelligence assets.
Peter, apparently, the Paine's Minox III was stated to have a serial number 27253. Unfortunately, for the FBI, that number belonged to a Minox II,
Minox III numbers went from 31275/58499.
So we have a Minox III with a Minox II serial number. Some trick.
Move along nothing to see here.
