    Paint Code Plate Font?

    The PO of my '70 911 removed the paint code plate from the door jam when he had the car repainted but never reinstalled the plate. Probably because it looks like it went through a wood chipper. I would like to install a new plate with the colour code stamped on the plate. I have located a new plate and was wondering if anyone knew what font the numbers and letters were on these plates, and where one might source the stamps? Thanks for the help.

    International Mercantile can stamp them, but since he also sells the plate I don't know if he stamps other plates.
