No he was a bad dog. Ran away from home in 1924 and still hasn't come back!

I gave all my dog tags to a girl that was going to make a hat band out of them. Never did see how that turned out.

First bone-shaped one I've ever seen. Pretty cool. I started a thread under General Discussion the other day (Dog Tag Challenge). You might want to have a look at some of those posts. My earliest is a 1919, but it's already been trumped.

When I saw the shape I did not think it was going to be very old. Then I noticed it was made of brass. The patina was impenetrable. I actually used a brass brush to get it to the point where you can even read it. Although it was a very soft brass brush

I'm no where near that date.
I think my oldest is 1958.
Congrats

Any old dog tag is cool. This is the first one I ever found that wasn't totally modern and aluminum.
