Morning everyone ive had a look through the threads on the website and I can't make my mind up as if the tag is any good or not can anyone help? Many thanks

Clearer pictures are certainly needed here, then wait for the experts to have their saying. I´m a little dubious as to the shape of the disk itself, shouldn´t it be more like an oval?

Best,

I don't trust this tag, know fonts are different from this

[Scout]

As others have mentioned, it does look a bit too 'chubby'

[Matt L]

Unfortunately, that's a known fake type; that weird 'g' is immediately recognizable, and I've seen many of these 'Norge' discs over the years.

Since it was mentioned, the disc itself isn't necessarily bad- it's not a common form, but there was a variant like this that is a bit 'chubby'.

[Jan]

Thanks Matt regarding the info on the disc itself!

Best,

Jan

Good info, Matt. I was only aware of the 'Slim Fast' type

Let the variants henceforth be known as 'chubby' and 'slim' tags.

Actually, I stand corrected- the 'chubby' form isn't uncommon at all; I've had lots of them I now see. Here's a photo of one:



And here's a 'Polizei' disc with that same weird 'g':



That one was already in the files here, so I probably showed it last time someone asked about one of these 'Norge' discs- you could probably search and find a thread or two I'd think...

Nice wear on the uppermost one!
