Explanation:
Definitely better than "inscription number".

Oxford (page 894 and 895):

inscription: a thing inscribed, as on a monument or in a book; also the act of inscribing something.

inscribe: write or carve (words or symbols) on something, as a permanent record. From the Latin in- "into" + scribere "write".

Registration (op. cit., page 1483): the act of registering.

Register: enter or record in an official list. Ultimately from the late Latin "regesta", meaning "things recorded".
