    I found this old key tag at a flea market today. Any idea what it might be from? Maybe it's not even for a key. There looks like there was a mark of some kind on the back, but has been obscured by wear.

      This is called a "charge coin." It is an early form of credit card. The design identifies the store that issued it.
