I doubt they are 100 years old but if you know the approximate age, I would appreciate it. The item on the left says 1/4 oz on top, T-A-W in the middle and 7 grams on the bottom. Scale weight?? What does T-A-W mean? Nothing on the back side. It's 1/2" by 3/4". The other item is an Alcoholics Anonymous tag with their prayer on the back. Seems to be copper and measures 1 1/4" by 1 3/4". Was this a key fob? Age? Thanks!

That is representing Alcoholics Anonymous. The back has the AA serenity prayer. Having been a member for 17 years I have to say that is not one I have seen before but no doubt that is what it is.

The first AA group in San Diego was started in 1940/41, so that would be the oldest it could be.

I believe the other item may be a wheel weight for a car with aluminum rims... The type that has adhesive on one side.

Thanks nhbenz, I should have realized that one myself! I thought they outlawed lead weights. Did you notice that on that web site, the minimum order was 1 ton! Now I just need to figure out the age of the AA fob.
