The following image is of a WW2 Field Telephone Set D MkV, as used in Army field formation, with the YA1860 morse key magnified within the circle.

Dating to the 1940s, it's about the same size, and is often mistaken, as a B2 spy set key. Spy set keys are highly sought after, and extremely expensive, but this little key makes a good substitute for those of us on a tighter budget! 

It is in good used condition with some discolouration of the metal, rust, and surface scuffs/scratches. 

A nice small vintage key to add to your collection!
