Key from Syria
I have a key that came from an antiquities dealer in Damascus Syria in 1965. It is number 7 in the document I attached. It has a visible seam all the way down the shank like it was cut out flat then rolled and sealed. Has anyone seen anything like this or have any idea how old it is?
Thanks! Milissa

Re: Key from Syria
I had the Key from Syria appraised and it came back at $300+. But no one knows how old it may be! I guess short of carbon dating I may never know. Oh well!

Another point Gary is that although the key is marked 'patent' nothing has been found in the British patent abridgements, so maybe its one that was 'applied for' but not granted... The mystery...
