George Washington's Watch Key

In July of 2003, Gary L. Smith, was commissioned to replicate an ornate watch key owned by George Washington.  The original key is housed in the Atwater Kent Museum in Philadelphia.  After traveling to Philadelphia and much research, the replica was started.  It took several months to accomplish but the result was phenomenal.  It was an exact replica.
