Zinc back alpha-numeric ribbon. First I've seen

I was scanning through ebay looking for a WWII Phil Lib plastic covered ribbon and found this one. It is zinc backed, but it has the Alpha-Numeric maker mark. First I have ever seen. All of the post war ribbons I've seen were brass backed.

 

Thoughts?

Is it made of zink or aluminum? Not that I can recall seeing either but I think it would make more sense in aluminum post war. We will have to see what others say.

I’m sure that is a post WWII, aluminum backed, ribbon bar. The “G-22” is the numerical hallmark for GEMSCO. I’m not sure exactly when those numerical hallmarks started being used.
