✅ SOLVED Iron valve handle?

[invent4hir]

All, I found what might be an iron valve handle near the former home of a War of 1812 officer. When he wasn’t serving in the military or as a civic leader, he worked as a blacksmith. He built the home in the early 1800s and lived there until his death in 1850. The home had been occupied on and off up until the 2000s.

Any help w/ ID and/or age would be appreciated.

1914-1922 Model T coil box key. The square opening in the key is for opening the valve on the acetylene tank for the head lights.
