I think it is very unlikely as lead is a very soft metal and would not be able to withstand the constant turning of the key before it wore away and the key would be totally useless. This is so unlikely it is not even on www.snopes.com as an urban myth."

However, toxic levels of lead in house and car keys is common. Please see the following fact sheet for families and DO NOT let your children chew on or play with keys!

Lead may also be present in many common household objects from miniblinds to costume jewelry to powercords. It's dumb for countries to allow lead to be used in these items, but of course we get even dumber the more lead we use.
