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 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.
