Anyone know what this item might be or possibly it's value? This item has been handed down through three generations (that we know of) and it was rumored to have belonged to a pilot from Colombia South America. He's about 1" tall.

Thanks
Dudes

Just a side note here, but the Arrow frog is very important among many cultures - the frog is called "arrow" because it is used to make poisoned arrows and darts. Very cool artifact, would be worth having looked at by professionals.

Poison Arrow Frog

"These frogs are found in Central and South America and, as their name suggests, may be used to produce poison arrows. The frogs secrete toxins from their skin which can kill predators. They are brightly coloured to warn predators to stay away."
