A whole pocket full of coins and possible arrowhead

[diabolicalbeans]

I found a whole pocket full of coins around the basketball court at the park, they're all modern the oldest is late '70s. I also found this weird thing that looks like a birdie but it's made out of metal, and this piece of stone that certainly looks like an arrowhead but it appears to be slate so I don't think it's the right kind of stone.

Rock looks natural to me...don't see any signs of it being worked.

That “birdie” was used with a roll of caps inside the round percussion end. We’d throw it in the air and it hit the ground to make a loud pop! I used to use them in the 60s.

I used them in the 1950's!

I don't remember them (birdie) as a kid but a few years ago I found one metal detecting a lot where I found ten silvers and a little gold ring! Fond memories...

I would say it truly was.

I remember playing with those cap things when I was a kid...
Nice skeleton key and bunch of change!

Yup! God, I haven't seen one of those things since the 70's or early 80's. I loved those things. One roll of caps + that thing = hours of fun (or used to, anyway).

Simpler times, my friends.
