Small lock with a lage S engraved in it.

[LuisTH]

I found a small lock with a large S engraved in it. My guess is that this is probably not that very old, but I have never seen a lock like this one. It is kind of small, less than an inch squared. It has a large S engraved surrounded by a square. What I find strange is that i found this in an old Pony Express site in Wyoming, and that i know of not a lot of people come around that area. It is probably from the 1970s or so but I just wanted to make sure since i have never seen a lock like this one before.

I found it at about 4.5", so that tells me also it is not that very old.

Anyone knows for certain how old is it?

Here is a picture of the lock which I posted on my girls' site.
