I found this in front of an older elementary school. I assume it isn't really important, yet there is history on the General Schoomaker. Surely just a school project handout.

It is heavy for its size and read a quarter Vdi. Thanks.

Hey, if anyone can tell me how to change the orientation, I'd appreciate it. I flipped it in at different angles and saved them but this app here keeps putting it back just like this.

pretty cool little find, definitely have not seen one come up on here before.

since the ring hole has no signs of wear, ill bet it was a style of "challenge coin" that was cut to be a dog tag shape rather than circle.
 
Yes, challenge coin and an unusual one at that. I did career day for my grandsons school class a couple years ago and brought a bunch I had and let each student pick one out to keep.

Very cool find, congrats Martin. Running Windows 10 on my laptop I have the same problem with Pics posting sideways. Seems like just recently started doing this. Anyway in Forum help and announcements there is a thread titled pics posting sideways and Torquemaster describes how to fix the pics. Its a pain in the butt but does work. Good luck, Mark
