    need some eyes on this RDV-005 or -006

    I'm pretty certain this is a RDV-005 but the look of it and location gives me a reason to pause, so would like your expert opinions to confirm.
    Thanks for looking.

    I'm going with -005 also. Mainly for the lack of the lower serif. The shape is interesting (I believe the -006's to be "rounder" and the -005's to be "taller"... and this one looks a tad bit on the "rounder" side), but sometimes the angle at which the pic was taken can throw that off a bit.

      I agree with georoxx, it is an 005. An 006 has a serif G

        That's a really clear looking RDV-005 (I think) - I see why you were questioning it Rock. They are not normally so bold.

          I agree that it is RDV-005. Your picture is too big to see the Secret Marker (TM), but I think sufficient evidence shows it to be normal.

              OK, thanks everyone. It was pretty clear to me as well but like Jason mentioned, it was the roundness and boldness which is unusual that made we stop from throwing it in the done pile right away. thanks again everyone for your input.

                I'm not sure if it isn't in two threads and I'm too lazy to go into detail

                      The majority carries RDV-005. This one was easy.
