    It has occurred to me -- you say a "silver army dog tag". Do you
    mean it is actually silver, or just silver-colored?  Regulation Army
    dog tags, while of a silver color, are not really made of silver. (I
    think they are stainless steel??)  Anyhow, much harder than silver
    and would probably need to be engraved.
