I found the brass clip which is about 1 inch square at an old home site on a public school campus which Dates to at least 1900. The coin I found at my home and looks Hebrew. Any help with either of these items is appreciated.
Name the Baby. What?

I Found the coin
“ Israel 1 Agora 1960 to 1980
These 1 agora coins were minted by Israel between 1960 and 1980. All but the last year (1980) were minted in aluminum,”

Sorry I was a bit late for this one, but in case you were wondering, the date shown according to the Hebrew calendar is (5)733 (the 5,000 is implied), which corresponds to 1973.
This "1 agora" was the smallest denomination coin in Israel back when they were still using the Israeli Pound (100 agorot = 1 pound) until 1980--kind of like our penny. It's a pretty little thing, isn’t it?

Thanks Didn’t think it was dated
50 years ago my brother and I ‘collected’ coins and sent away for packs of coins I think one of these was a part of that collection.
If fact I just went and looked in my old box of coins and there were 6 in there
So I imagine that’s how this got behind the garage of this old farm
A kid somewhere in time lost part of their collection
