Looks like maybe some Navajo jewelry or something. Love those diverse finds like that and the foreign coins too.

Nice finds. The clip on the right looks like a star saphire.

Can we see the back of the barrettes to help date?
I'm guessing the right one is black onyx and the star effect is from the camera flash?

Could be a flash effect, but the striated lines showing in the stone are very typical of star saphire. They are in fact what causes the star effect.
