Chauffeurs badge and some type of key

[mattgaudian]

Hunting a couple area parks. Found a 1941 minnesota chauffeurs badge(my first),a Lone Ranger pocket knife, a key chain with a patent date of 1879 with some type of key on it. I also found a toasted shield nickel. Anyone know what type of key it is?

That's a great looking badge & the 3rd one or so to be found this week. Would someone please throw one under my coil ? One of those is on my bucket list.

How wierd is that. I found the same badge over July 4th weekend in Hill River township (north of Fosston). Welcome to the 1941 MN Chauffeur's Badge Club!!
