Oh yeah ~ that is a cool find!
But you gotta tell us more about it! Where did you dug it ? I see you are in Denver ~ is Trinidad a town/city in Colorado?

I have the newest edition of Dr. William Bone's book US DOG LICENSE TAGS ~ it has a listing for Trinidad Colorado! the oldest known dog tag from there is dated 1906

Oh no, post all you want with your tags! We love seeing them all. Oddcoins is just keeping a list of oldest known. This is a good way to find out if it's the oldest or not, or if it has some special value.

I found a 1923 one today, posted it in tags. It's really cool becuase it's an actual dog and doghouse, also from Trinidad!
