No problem. For RPM to see the key it needs to be installed in the RPM
keybase. There are several ways of doing this.

1. Install the epel-release rpm
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm.
rpm -ivh  http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm
yum install epel-release #if you are on CentOS or Scientific Linux

wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm
; yum localinstall epel-release-latest

2. Or we can do it the old fashioned way with the GPG key:
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
rpm --checksig <file you are wanting to check>

To import the key into your local gpg keyring
gpg --import RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6

though this won't easily help check rpm files signatures.

Hope this helps (and sorry for the delay in answering)
