    I found this key in my Father's belongings after he died. I have no idea what kind of key it is! Maybe an old cash register, bank safe deposit box. I have never seen a key shaped like this before. It is marked SN 306 and is one 5/8 inches long. Color is brass. It is an interesting find for sure. I just wish I knew what it used to be used for.
