The first line reads, Panzer Pioneer Ersatz Battalion 208.
Stamm Kompanie 99.

thank you for the answer

Just to expand a bit on what Ralph said,
"Panzer Pioneer Ersatz Battalion 208. Stamm Kompanie 99."

I think he should have pointed out that the "99" refers to the individual soldiers roll number, there is only one "stamm Kompanie" in any given ersatz battalion.

Here it is:

Lexikon der Wehrmacht

You have to translate the page but that looks to be a good disk.

I will add that the B on each side of the disc indicates blood type. NH

Yes, I agree, although I am more used to seeing the roll number stamped like this one.

Ralph- correct, this disk is stamped a bit oddly the one your referring to is "by the book".
