Luftwaffe (Feld-Division) Erkennungsmarke I.D. Tags

My grandfather was in a Luftwaffen-Feld-Division unit from 1943-1945. From the archives of the Deutsche Dienststelle in Berlin, I was able to find out the info on two of his Erkennungsmarken I.D. Tags. The first being 125 Fl. Pl. Kdo A9/VII Crailsheim and the second being the Mobilmachungs number 214738/362.

I'm trying to reproduce these as a personal momento. (Sadly the originals were lost in Baden-Württemberg in 1945) and I want to check if the overall style, format, and appearance is correct:

The Mob numbers should be easy: 214738 at the top, underlined. With 362 underneath, centered. And a horizontal mirror image of the same numbers at the bottom.

The first dog tag is more difficult: Should the markings be the following: with a mirror image at the bottom again. Which one is more accurate?

FLUGP. Kdo. A9 VII or 125
Crailsheim 125 FL. Pl. Kdo. A9/VII Crailsheim


Thanks,
Felix :milwink:

Here are some links to a few examples from Wertheim, Pocking, Budweis, and Gleiwitz. I don't know if they are genuine, but they sure are in bad condition!
