Default ? on Harrison foil tag

Mine is original, but it is in such bad shape that I think it is embossed but I want to make sure. The repops come embossed and flat. I think embossed is correct. Yes,no.

60-62 aluminum radiators had a flat aluminum plate, that the information silk screened onto it. 63-72 aluminum radiators used a silver foil label.

Later 62's also had the foil label. The earlier ones with the metal plate had date coding stamped on the tag, while those with the foil tag had date coding stamped onto the top of the radiator.

I just didn't want to get to technical, as my posts usually tend to get overly long. Besides, since this post is in the C3 section, I figured it highly unlikely that the OP was asking about a 62.

I'd surmise he's asking about his 70.
