    I still haven't found my lost key, but when I looked in my file drawer for the little metal ID tag, I discovered that there was a THIRD fob in the packet of stuff that came with the car. Strange as it seems, I've lost one and still have two! I also learned that if you shop around among online OEM Toyota parts vendors, a new fob with uncut key can be had for about $120.

    Sounds like the wife had put it away.

    a key that works with a Gen 4 (2016 or 2017) Prius?
    You know, the battery is replaceable.

    You are both wrong. The lost fob is still lost. The one my wife usually carries in her purse is now in my pocket. The one I found in my file cabinet, which I tested and returned to its sealed plastic package, is back in that drawer.
