vintageproductions Posted March 4, 2015 Share #1 Posted March 4, 2015 Had a collector come in and sell us his WWII dog tag collection. There are about 350 sets hanging on this frame and another 200 sets in a bag. This will be a fun project for a long time to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDUNE Posted March 4, 2015 Share #6 Posted March 4, 2015 Good grief, I thought I had a lot at 225. Please keep me in mind if any of those are Roanoke Virginia guys Congrats on the awesome score, tag collectors would give their first born for a haul like that.

CNY Militaria Posted March 6, 2015 Share #9 Posted March 6, 2015 That will be a lot of fun to go through. I bought a collection of about 75 WWII tags a few years ago and the neat part was finding entries in various databases showing service histories, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vintageproductions Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share #12 Posted March 7, 2015 Thanks for all the comments and all the pm's. It will take me a while to go through all of these as I have two other collections I bought right before these that I have to sort first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
