You guys must have better eyes than me. I cannot read a thing. ...too dark.

Sure I can move it to photoshop... Is it my screen?

It is hard to see. Better pics would help.

Automatic cameras do not adjust well to white backgrounds.

It looks as if some members can see it. On my screen its solid black.

I brightened it up in photoshop already. This is from a scan of the tag not a photo.

I will try and brighten them a little more. The actual tags are dark black/ red and hard to read.

I can see them fine on my monitor from the post though so if it's dark then maybe your monitor need tweaked.

I think it is an adress as mentioned but there is no addresses like this in my area. The name comes up in Des Moines, Iowa though.

I can see it just fine.

I see it just fine now thanks. 8) But before I could not see a thing and I was getting tired of moving dark photos to photoshop so I can view them. I will try to adjust my screen. Thanks.


ADDED: My screen brightness was at 50 percent so I moved it to 75 and its better for dark images.




Is it a Trade Token? http://www.pnna.org/reference/trade_tokens.html

The letters and numbers on one side look hand stamped with individual punches.

I would say its definitely an address but nothing comes up online in Iowa.

I found mention that Roy Tharp owned a grocery in Iowa. What town did you find it in? Here is a Roy Tharp 1915. http://books.google.com/books?id=c4...&resnum=1#v=onepage&q=roy tharp" iowa&f=false

Maybe it is an old token made into an Id tag in case a dog is lost. The address may be where the lost dog lives. Just a WAG. Monty

A blank token made to dog tag/pendant. Address should be possible to track/trace...

Your eyes are fine

It's the laptop viewing angle (low battery not helping). Using a different one right now and see what you mean
