+# Using multiple YubiKey with same GPG keys
+
+If you want to store your keys on multiple YubiKey, you will see that GnuPG doesn't store the serial number of the first key it has seen.
+This is a know issue [#T2291](https://dev.gnupg.org/T2291). For now if you lost one of your keys and want to use another one the only workaround
+is to delete GnuPG's shadowed key (this is where the serial number is stored).
+
+To do so, first of all you need to find the `Keygrip` number of each key :
+```
+gpg2 --with-keygrip -k $KEYID
+pub   rsa4096/0xFF3E7D88647EBCDB 2017-10-09 [C]
+      Key fingerprint = 011C E16B D45B 27A5 5BA8  776D FF3E 7D88 647E BCDB
+      Keygrip = 7A20855980A62C10569DE893157F38A696B1300E
+uid                  [  ultime ] Dr Duh <doc@duh.to>
+sub   rsa4096/0xBECFA3C1AE191D15 2017-10-09 [S] [expires: 2018-10-09]
+      Keygrip = 85D44BD52AD45C0852BD15BF41161EE9AE477398
+sub   rsa4096/0x5912A795E90DD2CF 2017-10-09 [E] [expires: 2018-10-09]
+      Keygrip = A0AA3D9F626BDEA3B833F290C7BCA79216C8A996
+sub   rsa4096/0x3F29127E79649A3D 2017-10-09 [A] [expires: 2018-10-09]
+      Keygrip = 7EF25A1115294342F451BC1CDD0FA94395F2D074
+```
+
+Then delete all the shadow keys using their `Keygrip` number :
+```
+cd .gnupg/private-keys-v1.d
+rm 85D44BD52AD45C0852BD15BF41161EE9AE477398.key \
+A0AA3D9F626BDEA3B833F290C7BCA79216C8A996.key \
+7EF25A1115294342F451BC1CDD0FA94395F2D074.key
+```
+
+Insert the new YubiKey simply run a card-status this will re-generate the shadow-keys :
+```
+gpg2 --card-status
+```
+
+Then try to use your key, it should work, without serial number error.

 # Email
 
 GPG keys on YubiKey can be used with ease to encrypt or sign email messages and attachments using [Thunderbird](https://www.thunderbird.net/) and [Enigmail](https://www.enigmail.net). Thunderbird supports OAuth 2 authentication and can be used with Gmail. See [this guide](https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/how-use-pgp-linux) from EFF for detailed instructions.
