    Default Very Large Brass Key: ID and Age, Please?

    What have I got here...and how old may it be? Does it have any special significance...or value?

    I picked it up at an antique cartridge show in Castle Rock, Washington this past Saturday. I couldn't pass it up. It was partially covered in a pale green varnish, mostly in all the slots and other configurations at the business end. An overnight soak in mild TSP took care of that stuff.

    Length is just over 6 inches; weight is ~3.3 ounces. More pics on demand, of course.

    Any and all comments & observations are sought, and will be acknowledged with gratitude!

    Thanks for looking. wlw
