I can't say with a certainty but I would think the lid will have the same # as the bottom. FWIW, the RB has a # 7 with the same # on both pieces.

I have a # 6 aluminum DO.  Both the top and bottom are marked 246.

Same thing,  249.   Wagner kept most things simple like that.   It may have an "L" after it.   Meaning,  of course,  Lid.

I have 2 #6 DO's  One lid is marked only 246 and the other is marked 246 m, the bottoms are marked the same - 246 and 246 m.  The "m" is located under the 246.

We discussed this at a convention,  but my brain is failing to remember.   But we did figure it out.

I am assuming that the Wagner Drip Drop Trivets are also for these #9 roasters??  I did not realize that they are that much larger than a Griswold #9.

Jeff, Is there a # on that trivet? Wagner made at least one roaster larger than the 249 and your trivet may be for the larger size.

My 249 Aluminum Round Roaster is almost 9 1/2" inside diameter, does that help?

Dwayne is where the sides and bottom of your round roaster meat rounded like most dutch oven or is it square??  The reason that I ask is that the 249 in the picture is 9 15/16" across at the widest point.  I think that it would fit if the sides met the bottom at more of a corner.  

It will not fit in my #9 Griswold that is also 9 1/2" in diameter.  It fits in the oven but the feet don't touch the bottom.

Well that really makes me wonder if either of them will fit??  I would bet that they probably do because that is why they were made but they sure didn't leave very much wiggle room??
