Metal Dog
What sort of metal are Military "Dog Tags" made from?
They would have to be made out of a pretty tough metal in order to last many years, now for maybe Centuries to identify lost Soldiers.
I think they should made from Platnium
If you have faith in the actual military specs, it is made of a low carbon content stainless steel.
