love the old keys, the older the better. of course I think of old jails and such but they were very important back then as they are now. I would be thrilled to find one like that but unfortunately, I didn't and you did so you get the cool old key to add to your collection

I hoped you had one of those really large ones. I've never had a complete one of those, have you? (Got plenty of casket types, but like you say, always pleased to see them)

That key would be my personal favorite if it had fallen under my coil. I love it!

The hammy looks nice and round unclipped Rob, any chance of a close up :dontknow: The key looks to have little wear to the loop handle...nice one.

You are lucky, the oldest key I found is from the 1930's, your key makes mine look like a toasted zinc penny. Very nice hammereds too.

Hello pepperj, it's probably a jeton of some type, probably around 17th century.

Looks like it still has some good detail, did you find it around the other crisp Jetton?
