This disk looks good to me can someone tell me what unit it is?

I think that one's fine- I had one very similar myself. It's the SS-Sturmgeschütz-Ausbildungs-und Ersatz-Abteilung
Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...
Piter- that is amazing one digit apart!!
Here is my example

Wow Nick thats one crisp clean example mate.......Jake.
It's neat that both the first one and the one Piter have 'corrections'- the roll numbers were first 1358 and 1352, respectively, but were 'erased' and re-stamped with new numbers; I've seen this a few times- a blunt tool is used to smooth out the original stamping and a new number is struck overtop. It suggests a situation like the discs that were originally stamped 1204 and 1205 (and maybe more) were lost and so others from stock were taken and re-numbered, or for some reason the roll was altered and new numbers had to be assigned to a few recruits or something like that. It's a rather good sign I think since I can't see a faker coming up with that idea to make something look realistic. And you can see the text stamp is the same on the one that used to be mine that Nick now proudly owns Presumably they had a standard text stamp and just added in the variable bits, which is typical.
Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...
