Here is a great example of this Bavarian Seal Padlock. Very cool to see the internal workings and the simple fact that the face can be removed.
This padlock had a high bid of $350 (Plus $8 Shipping).
OFFERED IS A LARGE BRASS PADLOCK WITH DUELING LIONS CAST ON THE DUST COVER. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS WAS A BAVARIAN GOVERNMENT SEAL PADLOCK. THIS LOCK COMES WITH TWO ORIGINAL KEYS MARKED WITH THE SAME NUMBERS AS THE LOCK 482. THE LOCK WORKS PERFECTLY WITH THE KEYS. THIS TYPE OF LOCK HAS A REMOVABLE FACE PLATE SO THAT THE LOCK CAN BE REKEYED OR SERVICED. THIS LOCK IS IN ALL ORIGINAL NEAR MINT CONDITION AND BREAKS DOWN INTO NUMEROUS PIECES AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE PICTURES. TAKING THE LOCK APART IS A BIT TRICKY BUT ONCE YOU UNDERSTAND HOW IT WORKS IT'S NOT SO HARD. YOU HAVE TO USE THE REMOVAL KEY TO RELEASE THE KEEPER THAT HOLDS THE FACE OF THE LOCK IN PLACE. THIS IS A VERY RARE LOCK TO FIND WITH WORKING KEYS. - eBay (1 Oct 2012)
