I'll have to check first and see which brand of valve they installed. The typical keys are shown here

and here

Looks like we could order a key for somewhere between $50 and $70 plus shipping for about ten pounds weight. That's not quite as expensive as I'd feared. I know you don't usually just walk into a hardware and buy one because in many cities only the water department and licensed plumbers are supposed to have them. Of course that doesn't apply out here and we own the well and the valve.
