[Kieth-Tx]

Here are my finds from last nights low tide. The three ringer was cut in half and the holed...why? Have found a few clock keys but they are always square...this one is triangular...clock key also? The skeleton key by far the biggest i have found....any idea what it went to? The last item i found a couple nights ago and have no clue.

I think this one is medical, couldn;t find an exact match still looking, for the time check these out

Surgical Instruments 1789 Bell

i liked the idea and looked at your link, but i have to disagree , i think coat hook is right , the end does not look sharp , and the items in your link were for cutting.
again i like your idea but do not think thats it .

I think the key (with 2 round holes)is a barrel tap key. I'm not sure though.

Yes it is a Barrel Tap Key

I liked the idea of a surgical instrument also....but will have to agree with Taz. The reason is...once he said that I scraped the center of the flat side and found that what was left of the screw was rust and I figure it would also be brass if medical. And the length is only 3 1/8".

Hey Silver Searcher, what was it used for?

Nice finds! Looks like an old key and some Civil War bullets and a lot more.

Hey Silver Searcher, what was it used for QUOTE...

Hey Keith.....Early form of security for publicans worried about unauthorized access to their open barrels. The end of these keys came in a variety of geometric shapes and all had matching locks....

Thanks SilverSearcher. I knew it was too oddly shaped for a clock key.
