"Dog" Gone that is an old tag!

Well I have to say this is the oldest dog tag I have found to date!!!
Found it at a street construction site.Was in pretty rough shape but I was able to get almost all the junk off of it.
What do you think it is worth??

prolly worth whatever it is worth to you. maybe if you have a town museum or something that would like it. that is pretty old, the oldest i have found was a 46 behind an old church.

This is the oldest one found from Fairbault, MN. yet. The others are 1892, '94 & '98. It should be worth $100.
Great find-SB

That's the oldest dog tag I've seen on here :thumbsup:

I've posted Two tags from the 1880s on here.

I also had a bad experience with a tag collector who frequented this forum.  I wouldn't be in any hurry to sell it if I were you.  My tags were worth over $200 a piece.


PM me and I'll tell ya about it.



Congratulations on a GREAT find!
