So over Memorial Day my niece was around, running around raising hell as 7 year old girls are want to do. Well she finds this key in the basement and starts making up all these fantastic stories about how it opens chests full of pirate treasure and whatnot.

Well being a pragmatic but not completely heartless uncle I decided to entertain her stories, I've decided to make her a treasure chest full of old coins and rocks (both of which she's into) and a story to go with it for her birthday here in July.

So what I'm asking of you folks is any kind of information on this key or how I could go about getting a mechanism/lock to fit this key. I've already emailed locksmiths and they told me to take a hike. It has no markings anywhere on it, but I can provide accurate measurements of any facet if it would help.
