Brilliantly-shiny key fob (chrome?), about 1-1/2" diameter. Shows 1-story building - and reads Hotel Sahara / Las Vegas, Nev. Attached by a thin chain is a horseshoe. Reverse side of medallion shows Sphinx, scimitar and star. Not sure how any keys could be connected to this, unless by a separate chain threaded through the fob.
