Thanks everyone, considering its condition its actually worth about 50 dollars. Im not gonna sell it though, im going to hang it up. It beats my previouse oldest find by 4 years. (a 1920 wheat cent). And its my most valuable find yet, and by far the coolest.

how cool is that! here in Delaware old license plates are actually still usable and quite valueable. they are kind of a status symbol in a way. the lower the number the more they are worth. you can always tell the lawyers and the doctors by their black Delaware license plates! great find!

cool! I found what appears to be a license plate, but it is COVERED in rust....I don't think the paint is still there on it....It's just scrap metal now i think

Cool. You should try scrubbing it with a hard brush, it really helps get iron off so you could at least read the date.
