Description

Rectangular iron peg with the number "4" engraved on the bottom probably used as a key in a machine for printing type. The key is a solid piece of metal carved into a rectangular form similar to a seal (chop) with rounded corners at the top and a raised number four on the bottom formed by a reductive process. There are traces of rust on the key.
