Title: Clock Winder
Post by: Al.Thepastfinder, ( Alan ) on May 15, 2010, 04:10:12 PM
 I had to nip out and see one of my farmer's this morning,  while i was there he told me he had a ploughed field there just seeded if i wanted to go on,
 not one to miss an opportunity i went on,    found some predec. and Georgian coppers  but then this nice Clock key, i didn't have a coin to put alongside, but its two and a half inches long and two and a quarter inches wide at the top.    Victorian Peter ??  couldn't find a maker's name when i washed it,

Interesting find. I can't find a match for it, so unsure of the date.

Thanks Peter anyhow, i haven't been able to find one either,???  i thought it may be Victorian as it has that look about it and heart shaped stuff was in a lot in Victorian times,
not a barrel tap key either as the square hole in the bottom is too small,

Thanks Again Peter
Take Care
Alan

Nice one Roman Steve
