The metal stamping kit was a compact, portable way for units to mark their equipment with their name, unit, and/or serial numbers, as well as their identity disks. The box itself is made of wood and painted OD. The lid reads “MARKING OUTFIT FOR STAMPING METAL” and is attached to the box by two brass hinges. Two flat hooks swivel down from the front of the lid and hook into two screw heads to close the box. Inside, there are 37 stamps, a wooden hammer, a peg to hold the templates in place, and some templates. The stamps contain the alphabet, 0-9, and punctuation. The templates are to ensure proper marking of various equipment, which is listed around the gauges. There is also a sample identity disk layout stamped inside the stamping kit box to help soldiers properly mark their disks per regulation (many falsely believe this stamp shows who the owner of the box was).
