    My wife found a set of keys in her purse. One of them is a door or ignition
    key. The opening for the key ring is large. The key has been cut to fit a
    particular lock tumbler, but it also has an uncut "bar" in the middle of the
    key. It looks like a key blank was cut, split in half, and the halves attached
    to each side of an uncut blank. On the metal part of the key is what might be a
    Mercedes emblem.
    We have no idea where the keys came from or how they got in her purse. If I
    could identify what car the key fits, it might give us a clue.

    Yah, It's the key to my apartment. I told her not to keep them in her purse!
    She should have left them at work! Damn, sorry dude. Strictly physical, no
    feelings involved.

    What stupid question is this. it's a key to over a million of vehicles. walk
    around your neigbourhood and try in every car door you see!

    Tom, if I'm "seeing" this the way I think you described it, it sounds like a
    key cut for a European car, possibly a Mercedes.

    No dude, it ain't the key to over a million of vehicles.
    She probably picked up someone keys by mistake.
    Or someone put them into her purse by mistake. It's not a run of the mill key,
    if someone could say, for example, that Mercedes keys are like this, she might
    be able to figure out who it might belong to.

    I could scan it and send you a JPEG.

    Scan it and post it here for everybody to look at. If the net nanny's don't
    like it, they don't have to look at it.

    Or post it to a photo-hosting web site and post the URL.

    But that would be the smart and polite way and would never work for Denny.
