If the serial number surface has been defaced or obliterated to the point it is illegible, is there a way to raise the number to retrieve the original serial number?

The short answer is generally yes. State and local crime labs do it fairly regularly as part of a criminal investigation. The success rate depends on the severity of the obliteration.

Call BATFE and ask them what solution you should persue...
