Padlock

[JoeCrow]

Thanks for looking at this. Found this old padlock busted and heavily corroded while digging in the yard last Summer. Just cleaned it up. I can find no maker's mark.
Other finds in the yard are junk, clay pipe fragments, and chunks of lead, oh! and a live .45 round.
Thanks!

I believe it is this lock: Show Picture
The site doesn't give much to go on, other than it's a brass case lock with a steel shackle. 2-1/8" high by 1-1/2" wide.
It's listed under "warded design", so probably not a very secure lock - even for its day.
