Lee Metford-lee Speed with Bore war history?

[Surpmil]

Just took a pic of the tag.
It is made of aluminum and the letters are stamped in.It looks old as the aluminum is starting to corrode and has some pitting
The string is also the old bass rope type, not modern string.It just looks old.

Typical modern fonts of the kind you can buy at Princess Auto. And I'd say the oxidization happened before the stamping.

Museum tags display accession numbers and similar information. Arcane references to a particular battle do not fit with any known method of artifact categorization or recording to my knowledge.
