key ring with porsche crest

[haul]

As I do not find the thread or the post and I know it had been discussed before,
how does the original old porsche crest key ring look?

is the one below the right one, or also a copy of the copy..

Haul -- Here is my NOS version of that style key fob. These are from an aftermarket company and not a Porsche supplied item. Hope this helps.

Haul - Attached are the key fobs that came from the Porsche dealer back in the day. There are a couple of different versions of these as well. The example on the far right is NOS.

That top key fob looks like a very common aftermarket item from the era. I used to have one for the keys to my 1974 88" Series III Land Rover. Here's a listing from a 1971 MG Mitten Catalog--they cost $ 1.75 back then:

It's period correct, it's nice but it's not from Porsche. I have a similar, newer one for my VW:

The old 356 Key fobs can bring a few thousand dollars today. This is one of the best reproductions--there's a non-Porsche ring in the "curlicue" because Porsche actually showed one that way in a late 356 brochure:

The pouch style came in with the 911s--I knew somebody who got one with a late 356. This is [I think] an NOS pouch:

And, here's a similar pouch with a Porsche crest. It's very soft and has a leather lining like the 356 fobs. I don't know whether it's genuine Porsche or not:

As to values...

The record for an original Porsche 356 key fob might have been $ 3,250. A nice, original one might still fetch $ 2k to $ 3k but you'd have to be darn sure it's not a quality reproduction--those are a little over $ 100. The cheap reproductions (which are easy to spot--they have no curlicue) are about $ 30.

I once saw an original 911-style pouch with an asking price near $ 1,000. I don't know if the demand supports that but they might go over $ 500 in good condition (or not). Orange Bar used to reproduce them for about $ 100. I think I paid Performance Products $ 12 around 1997.

But, I fear those English-made aftermarket key fobs like MG Mitten sold in the day are too common to be high value. A nice one might be worth $ 20 or so. Maybe I'm wrong but I'd be really surprised if one fetched over $ 50.

You can get a really nice leather key fob with a Porsche crest at your Porsche dealer for $ 28 and they're available in six different colors if you have trouble matching keys to your Porsches.

That is the key ring that was given to the previous owner of my car when he took delivery at the dealership.

Another style that came to me with the car. I don't know the age but it's well patina'd!

I have a very similar FOB in my collection, back had a dealer name on it at some point but it has long since worn off:
