Found this old tag in a cigar box that belonged to my grandfather. The box was full of relics and other similar things he had collected over the years. I always thought it came from one of the old mines around here, but had never seen any old miners tags like it until today, when I found this photo here of some tags found in Idaho. What do you guys think? Match?

It looks more like a room key tag from a hotel.I have found more than a dozen mine tags from the old mines around here. Here are some I found for comparison. These are from TOC cripple creek mines. http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/tokens-tags/487493-gold-ore-cart-tags.html
Here is a room tag simular to yours I found. 1113171917-1.jpg
I find a lot of miners check tags like the one in your other post by the coal towns. Nice find!
