[Question] ID a disc or ask "What is the story on this disc...?" - Take II

Anyone know what this is? Ghost Samurai 1st Run Xcaliber?

This is definitely an Xcaliber. It is definitely a ghost samurai stamp. I believe the samurai stamps are indicative of first runs, and I believe this came from The Japan Open 15-20 years ago. Anybody know how rare this is? Any ideas on value? If it's a first run Xcal, it should be worth over $100, if 10/10. This is likely 8/10 or 9/10, though.

Okay fellow disc nerds...been grabbing up any pfn/pat # discs at the PIAS locations in my area here recently. And by recently I mean the last several years lol. Once again I'm coming to the best dg community with some help on ID'ing a few gems! Pretty sure I know what most are but stumped on a few and just really curious...so here goes. I'll make a post for each of the 5 I'm not sure on. Have several other pics outside of the 3 that can be uploaded if anybody wants/needs to see.

1 of 5...

Board flat Factory 2nd. Super straight flyer. No trace of any markings on flight plate...next to a known teebird for scale.

Able to see etchings of 175 and what could possibly be a "V" but not clear enough to tell? Pretty surprisingly stable. And not sure why it keeps flipping my pics sideways lol

# 5.

Pias marked as thunderbird but that's def not the case as they didn't come out for several years after pat# removal. Star plastic. Only thrown it once (just got it yesterday) and flew similar to what I'd think an old star teebird would fly like.

Sorry my disc photography skills are not that great! Not helping that when I upload they keep rotating too lol!

Okay, so any opinions on what these guys are is greatly appreciated!!! And dflef happy to provide more pics/info if anybody wants. Thinking there's some other ppl out there like me that like nerding out on old school plastic lol!

That one could be a Viking. Rim looks right but I haven't had one in a decade. They kinda came out all over the map for stability.

Ah...kinda forgot about the Viking! But yeah same here, haven't seen one of those in a minute! I know there's some savants on here that'll def know lol!
 
Can someone help me identify this discmania disc it has no tooling or patent on the back of disc. I'm assuming it's a FD but not sure

Definitely an Active Premium Magician from last year's Red Mystery Box.
 
Need some help identifying this disc. Here is what I know: From an event named Duke Braggs Deuce Run in 2011. It has the Innova stamp on the bottom. Some sort of putter.

However, I can't ID the disc from the code on the bottom "KCP2". Someone suggested that it might be a Psycho run Discmania P2, but those have "KP2" on the bottom, not "KCP2". It does have "KP2" on the top in marker, though.

Let me know what you all think!

Definitely a Innova mfd P2 in KC Pro plastic.
Not really worth a lot, but a fun piece of history.
 
Can anyone help me identify this Discraft Disc?

I recently purchased a collection of discs from 2010-2012 and I found this one in there. The obvious answer is that it's a Nuke OS but it has no tooling and I can't find a picture of another one on the internet. Does anyone have any knowledge of this particular disc/stamp combo? Could it be a test flight or some kind of limited first run?

Thanks in advance!

A side profil picture of the rim would be help ful in determining the mold. It does look lika a Nuke os like you say.
 
First run Nukes were 2010ish, so if that's an OS it could possibly be a proto or a (unlikely) 1st run.

Note: I have zero data to back that up.
 
The disc has been positively identified via a collector group on FB. It's a 2011 USADGC released "proto/test flight" Nuke OS. Thank you everyone for your help!
 
I got these with a group of discs from the '80s. Neither has any kind of information molded into them, no tooling or anything. They're the right diameter for golf discs. The white one is a lid. The other one has a beveled edge and a normal rounded/domey top, but the bottom of the flightplate has a funny angle to it almost like you'd expect on a fastback disc.

Any ideas?

The white one is probably a Lightning Upshot. The red one is...some other Lightning disc? I can look and see when I get home, I recall Lightning discs with that sort of core piece but I don't remember the name of the disc.
