I wonder if our key is as old as this one?

When I saw this story I was fascinated and wonder if the very old key I own is as old as the one featured here? It is similar in style, but if anything looks even older than the one in the article.  It came from my home in Guernsey, no one was sure of its provenance. I used to tease our kids it was the one my ancestor Minstrel Blondel used to release Richard the Lionheart from his Austrian prison.
