Bidspirit auction | Two Sets of Mid-to-Late 20th


Two Sets of Mid-to-Late 20th Century International Military Identification Tags - This lot comprises two sets of military identification tags, commonly known as dog tags, each suspended from a standard ball-link chain. The tags are constructed from a non-magnetic metal alloy, likely aluminium, and feature stamped alphanumeric identifiers. The 12-digit identification number format and specific abbreviations suggest a South American origin, most likely from Brazil. The first set includes two tags; one is stamped with the code L.I.D. 05 / H C M 1 and the service number 131.570.020.904, while the second tag displays three lines of abbreviations: AB. CO. OR, ID. HH. VJ, and CO. PR. AN. These abbreviations likely denote blood type and religious or physical classifications. The second set features a primary tag stamped with L.D. 02 \ HC V.J and the service number 417.900.073.421, paired with a secondary tag showing a plain reverse side.
