damatman88 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I hit an old homesite this morning that was a sea of iron but managed to pull this padlock. Name is " HOMER & CO. Still functional and I was able to pick it. Anyone have any idea what the age is? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPT_GhostLight Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Nice find! I'd guess it's anywhere from the mid 1800s to early 1900s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's one listed on Ebay, but it doesn't state the age. https://www.ebay.com/itm/304226528369?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=fFk-1bmKQpC&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=SG0iqKmiTDi&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used it to figure out which lock a brass keyhole cover came from that I recently found. 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
