Insurance key tags

I've just found two vintage insurance key tags.  .oozing at e Bay, this appears to be an interesting find, with values in excess of £5 for some.  Is this something Numista should be listing.

Yes please.  I have a number of these too.

Do we need a new Exonomia type “luggage tag”?

Pretty sure LDC63 and IMWC64 is the same person, and not trying very hard to hide the fact.

Not the same person, but related.

As for ‘Luggage Tags’, I agree, but this should be a separate sub section under a more general heading of ‘Tags or Fobs’ .  The various Tags I have are all copper or bronze Insurance Tags and all have a reward for the finder.  Most, but not all, are pre decimalisation in the UK, so have some age to them (now 50 years +), as well as some value.  These , I assume, are not the same as luggage tags, but maybe Mr Midnight could send a picture of what he/she would class as a luggage tag.
