Nice finds !! It appears that your "baby Spoon" is actually a " PINE TREE 1927 DEMITASSE SPOON BY INTERNATIONAL SILVER CO. " (see image)

Had me going for a second but I knew there'd be NO WAY you'd have only 5 replies if you found a Pine Tree Shilling, spoken from my own experience! Don't know if you've ever found one, but if not, here's hoping you do! BTW, very nice spoon!

I was just as impressed with the arrowhead. You could get comments on it on the Indian Artifacts forum as well. Charl and MaMucker would likely know it's typology. Nice quartz arrowhead. I'd say it's a Levanna...

Cool spoon, and International Silver’s Pine Tree pattern as said. Designed by Frederick W. Stark in 1927 and in use until 1974 but, since it says “Pat. Pend.” (Patent Pending), it will be from the very early part of that period.

However, it is a baby spoon as originally said, and not a demitasse spoon. The proportions and bowl shape are all wrong for a demitasse in that pattern.

Note that the above comparative pictures are the same pattern... the pine tree appears only on the underside of the handle.
