That's a good find. I've dug a few bird bands in the past. Sometimes they have a phone number on them and a ID number so you can call and find out when the bird was tagged and where.
ism that early for aluminum , I talked to one of they guys in that club and he said it was in the early 50,s maybe 40s that they raised a buch of birds and realesed them for hunting and he said they went far and wide, I rebucked him for not losing some siver coins for me back then YOU know the funny thing is this stuff was not deep most being under 3" deep can you Imagin that my thinking is the tree rots keep puching the stuff to the surface. yet in the farm field its common to find things 0 to 12" deep i suppose because the plowing was done at 12"
