Well this yr is quickly coming to an end. It was 42 degrees today, calling for 20 degrees 25mph winds and snow on friday...yuck!!!
So I knew today I just had to get out to a field ONE last time to scratch that itch. I got off at 3pm, got to the field by 335pm, so I had a lil over an hour to hunt before dark, been to this field earlier this fall and it didn't produce much, but I had a feeling at least one cool find was there waiting for me, and I was right!!!!!! Last dig of the night, just before dark produced the 1939 Ohio chauffeur badge, and it is in superb shape after I cleaned it up!

Congrats we'll done I like that 1939 thing
 
Excellent find - tokens/tags & badges are always a welcome find in my book!

Hi G4E
Although that key isn't an original to the "lock", I'd bet it would fit in an original Model A Ford ignition switch. I had quite a few when I was restoring old Fords.
When I would find an original ignition cable I could usually a key to fit. Maybe on the other side would be an "A" with a 3 digit number. Nice finds.
 
Oh man that tag cleaned real nice. Hopefully In January my hunting season begins.
Happy Holidays.
