    I have eventually found what it's for. It's from a Hobbs and co brass paperseal padlock with a Tucker and Reeves patent lock system from about 1907 -ish. Both the padlock and the key were numbered to match if my information is correct. So everybody check your paperseal padlocks to see if this key matches your lock number .
