That's the whole point of my OP. I had already identified that particular part number (95098) as being that of high quality discs and was dismayed at an unidentifiable new part number. I was hoping...

OK Thanks. I think I'll just ask the seller and maybe Verbatim. But the expected, documented, part number, and free 3 day shipping is hard to resist. And note that the listing does give the Verbatim...
