1905 Tulsa I.T. Dog Tax

[bertman]

Neighbor that lives behind me advised where some dirt was recently moved. Said to myself, self you need to get the detector and check the spot. Place was muddy; I mean 10lbs of mud per shoe. Anyway, got a signal of 12-37/38 and was hoping for a wheat or indian. Didn't know what I had until cleaning the mud off at the house.

A member of the local club advised I should be able to get no less than $100 if should decide to sell.

Note: All of the lettering is raised except for the tax ID and last numeric in the date which were struck when
the fee was paid.

That is a great find congratulations! Not a lot of relics bear writing indicating territorial status. You've got a real keeper.

Thanks for the replies... The only other Indian Territory item I've found was:

Wetumka I.T. (William & Darks) token that was good for $1.00 in trade... A token collector gave me $250.00 for it...

The money I received allowed me to purchase a 1881 five dollar gold coin with enough left over to buy 2 tanks of gas for the pickup...

Sweet find! I assume you live in Tulsa?

Sure do.. Family moved here when I was 3... I'll be 51 next month...
