Got old dog tags?

[K Zack]

I found an old homestead on a plat map from 1880, the house itself is gone.
The hunt was on!
It took about an hour to find the house but I don’t think it has been hunted.
I was not sure if this was a Dog tag, Thank You Oddcoins for letting me know it is a Dog Tag. 1917 marked # 7 from Oceana County, Greenwood Township, Michigan.

It was easier to find it the first time, to many boxes!!!
Newaygo County, Lincoln Township, Michigan.
It is Dated 1901 and is tag number 19

Hi all, I,m not sure you have an interest in Dog tags from down under. Any way some states in Australia dog tags go back to 1850. Heres a couple from 1923 i found a few years ago
