What tractor is this??

[RobD70]

A cousin of mine passed away about a month ago or so and he had several tractors. I helped haul this John Deere home and it does not have any number decals to help identify it. I did get a picture of the serial number plate. It appears to have these numbers on that plate - T5R1C 158676T . Im guessing the T on the end as its hard to tell, not sure if its a letter or a scratch mark. Can anyone identify what this is, year and model? Will add the tag picture if I can.
