whats it worth

[Ron]

I dug this bracelett in a civil war camp site, it was about 6 inches deep in undisturbed soil. The serial no. on the back made me curious. It is A.S.N.35329681. does anyone know if this could be very old or just lost recently. Hope the picture shows up OK .Thanks, Ron

The latch looks older, say 50s-60s, maybe older. "A.S.N." could be initials or stand for Army Serial Number, followed by the number. My dad was in WWII and he had a number like that. Now they use people's SSNs, but back then it was an 8-digit number like that. Worth Probably not much except to the owner.

Can't say who lost it, but it sounds like the serial number of a WWII draftee:
