1987 300E key stuck in ignition

[mark2590]

Hey,

I have two keys to my 1987 Mercedes 300E, one can only be used for locking / unlocking the doors and the other one can be used for the ignition and the doors. This morning I put the wrong key in the ignition and turned it and now my key is stuck in the on position, the car is not on but it is on the position where the battery is on. I disconnected the battery because the key wont turn backwards for me to get it out, does someone know what i can do to get this key out?

any help is greatly appreciated...thanks- mark
