Submitting scans of a copy protection "device"?

I recently received a bunch of classic D&D PC games in the mail, and to my surprise they actually came with the code wheels needed to bypass the copy protection for 2 of the games rather than a digital manual telling you the answers. They're pretty cool looking, and I feel they're worthy of submitting, I'm just not sure if that would be against some kind of regulations.
They're brand new, so the parts where the actual answers are haven't even been punched out yet, so nobody could actually gain any information from the scans to illegally play the games, but I figured I'd better bring it up first anyway.

Sounds good, they're directly linked to those games, so you could add the scans as "Extra Media" rather than making seperate entries for them.
But don't submit them just yet, wait for a staff member to (dis)confirm my thoughts.

Yeah, I just caught one on AIM and he said it was cool, since none of the copy protection is actually visible.

Alright, great. Could you post a link of them once they're accepted? I'm curious to see how they look like

Yeah, I kinda want to leave them unpunched and find the copy protection online or something >_>

Home Of The Underdogs usually has the codes for this sort of stuff for abandonware.
Code wheels are slightly less annoying than "The first line of the fourth paragraph of the fifth page" and other things that need you to pull out the manual.

Haha, almost like a puzzle in itself. If you can't solve it: bad luck!
