Serial Number Validity

About a year and a half ago I purchased an iPhone XR directly from an Apple Store. I recently went to check the serial number and it deemed it as “invalid” I have also tried every other number in setting “about” page. I even tried typing in the number instead of Copy & Paste, nothing. No problems otherwise but are there any possible solutions, or even just an explanation?

iPhone XR, iOS 14
