Where is the style number on a beanie baby?

What is a swing tag on a beanie baby?

How do I know what beanie baby I have?
Since the beginning, Beanie Babies have included two tags for identification: a heart-shaped “swing tag” at the top, and a fabric “tush tag” at the bottom. Both tags have been redesigned completely over time. Between 1994 and 1996, the swing tags had “To” and “From” blanks in them for use as gifts.
What are tag errors on Ty Beanie Babies?
The year on the tush tag is when the name was trademarked and in most cases does not match the birth year. The word “original” misspelled on the hang tag as “origiinal” is an error but was printed like that on such a large quantity of Beanies that it doesn’t increase the value.
