2911 on a placard, orange panel or shipping paper

It can stand for either of two ERG 2024 entries: “Radioactive material, excepted package, articles” and “Radioactive material, excepted package, instruments”. Both use Guide 161, so the number alone is enough to find the guide. On a numbered orange panel, 2911 is the lower number (how to read an orange panel).
