Re: Norge Tag(Again) Original ?
I'm doubtful too because it's different than the known specimens- granted those have somewhat higher Stammrollennummern, however I'd find it unlikely that the unit began with individual letter stamped discs and quickly switched to ones made with a single dedicated text stamp. It's a Regimental roll, so it wasn't up to individual Kompanien to make their own discs, so I just don't see there being variants like this. The lowest original I know of is just Nr. 211- not very far from 84. I also have an image of Nr. 606, which is identical textually to Nr. 211, so they clearly used the same stamp for a lot of discs. I don't think the Sigrunen are actually gone- I think someone's just altered the image for Internet publication and they're still there on the actual disc. Were they removed, there'd be a good deal of metal actually gone, plus I see the difference in the quality of the area image-wise suggesting it's just had the area smudged or cloned-over.
I also think there may be some 'halo' around some of the letters, which would indicate more recent stamping of an already corroded blank disc- plus areas of corrosion seem to end at letters, and don't continue into the recess, also suggesting it's not original. The picture isn't large enough to be sure, but it appears so.
Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...

Re: Norge Tag(Again) Original ?
Yup, that's the known type I was talking about that Paul posted in the previous thread about a supposed Norge disc. Very clearly different.
