Hi, It just looks like it is a little too well done. Too nice and neat. Just my limited opinion.

Pete, If you don't mind me asking,,where did you get this tag..
Study this photo very good,,is it exactly the same? dot for dot, scratch for scratch?

Hi Pete.I believe your tag is an original.An unissued tag from training and replacement.

years ago these tags ,if you were lucky to get one, were a safe bet. The font sytle was not being copied..
But the last couple of years they have been copied. I am glad my friend Doc showed some of his nice originals..The font style is the same,,but they are stamped in ,and deep.
Pete, I ask again where you are getting this tag from. You can email me privately if you wish. The photo I posted if you notice has the exact soldiers roll number... It was also sent to me for my 'fake' files a couple of years ago.It might need a hands on and a good loop to check ,but if the nomaclature is not stamped in the tag is fake........,G.
