Looks like it would fit in the tail light of my old '51 Mercury.

1157 is dual filament. 1156 is single filament.

Hmmm, according to this (https://partsavatar.ca/product/34gvb5kkm3?gclid=CjwKCAiAgrfhBRA3EiwAnfF4tm2Y8MFuEctj4Qqzcx8FgQt2CFWpixOppClcJ5VICXAgmsBQcExbOxoCYXkQAvD_BwE), it could be either.

I also think it's an 1156. Don't get a gold colored one, get a silver one like that. A gold one will blow out fast.
