Hi JWais,

Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to say if a disc like this is original- since there are only numbers, there is very little to evaluate. They are also very easy to fake. If that stainless steel half is real, then it is harder to believe the zinc one is real because the numbers are very different; the serial number is close, so I would expect the same type of numbers. It's possible that the unit changed their set of stamps of course, but just from what you have, I would not trust the zinc one.
