Hot damn!  (no blacksmithing pun intended)

  Well, digging around on the internet paid off.  I found the gentleman who made a reproduction of the same chest.  He sent me some info along with some pics with promises to send me more.  The best part was that he sent me a close up of the key.  Its shape and cut is pretty much exactly what I expected.  He will hopefully be sending me more but the shape of the key confirms almost 100% my theory on the locks operation.  I've included the picture sent to me below.
