2909 on a placard, orange panel or shipping paper

It can stand for any of three ERG 2024 entries: “Radioactive material, excepted package, articles manufactured from depleted uranium”, “Radioactive material, excepted package, articles manufactured from natural thorium” and “Radioactive material, excepted package, articles manufactured from natural uranium”. All use Guide 161, so the number alone is enough to find the guide. On a numbered orange panel, 2909 is the lower number (how to read an orange panel).
