I did happen to find that site - thank you for letting me know it is a well respected resource. I do not understand what it is about the E and I fonts that make the fake stand out from the original.

It's the shape of the letters, the serifs, that are the big no-no. But in the case of your disc, the obvious main difference is the letter 'O', that alone is enough to condemn it.
