In the 1950's they were made out of better metal than his new 
reproduction (like most all parts these days).  There was no need to 
dress the key up.

I use the original on for my TR3 and there is no sign of wear.  Just a 
nice old part patina.

FYI, the engine compartment  key to a old VW van is the same size.

Just another example of British car replacement part economics at work.
