What did this solid brass key go to?
- Thread starter Foster
- Start date
It is solid brass with 186 on the end. Roughly 5 1/2" long, and the part that goes in the lock is 1 1/2" wide.
Could be a House Key.
A Friend of mine Lived in an Old Victorian Hotel
for a Year. The Back door opened with a Very Large Sleleton key.
I Didn't measure it but it could have been 5 1/2 inches.
Was the largest one I Ever saw

Could be. The site it came from dates in the mid 1800's. There is no structure still standing, but I have found a multitude of items throughout the years of hunting it.

Could be for a cell door as big as it is. Or possibly a large strong box? I'm just guessing. Monty
