    I need help with this one. It looks almost identical to tags seen on
    http://www.mottsmili...g/civilwar.html, (Mott's Military Museum). I have also researched fakes and have found none like this listed. I hope someone can help me that has knowledge in this line of collecting, to help me determine it's validity and time frame. I thank you in advance for any help that you can give me.

      I think it's a key tag, not a dog tag. Most dog tags of that period have a unit number and not an address.

      This is for a key chain. At the bottom it says "& RECEIVE REWARD" It should also say RETURN . What is on the back of the medal ? It is so worn from rubbing on keys.

      The dog tags tags that are shown on the link given from Mott's also have no unit number, just the address and look almost identical. The only difference is the receive reward that is at the bottom. I thank you for your help, you are awesome people to help me like this unconditionally. It probably is just a pipe dream to hope that I have found something historically significant.
