Arrowhead like copper piece

[PowerDubs]

Found this yesterday near a large old copper coin. I think I bent it while digging. Any ideas?

Could be a keyhole dust cover....anything stamped on it?

My first thought was horse harness related or saddle 'drop' decoration.

I think ticndig got it !!

Definitely not part of a spoon, you can’t tell in the picture because it is bent but it goes to the tip just like an arrowhead

There is nothing on it, no markings no hole.

It also is hard to tell from the picture but it is larger than a spoon end – the coin next with more than likely was an old British copper, So bigger than a quarter, like a large cent.

No clue, what did the coin turn out to be??

Maybe a thumb lift from a tankard, flagon, or coffee pot?

Although I've never seen one exactly like that, it looks like it could be a trade point--an arrowhead.

Nothing says that a spoon handle can't be reworked for another purpose. It looks like a spoon handle to me as well.

The arrowhead looks like a broken tip of a wood hole drill bit

Padlock keyhole cover.

Being an archer who is interested in primitive ways, I’d say it wouldn’t be possible to haft that head to a shaft.
Don’t think it’s an arrow head.
