It is an example of the mystery item photographed on top of the dime for size comparison.

If you drink a lot of coffee and get a Pareidolia attack at 3:00 AM you may see these two figures on the surface.

PS: I have no idea what it is but maybe an ancient coin?

I took the liberty of brightening up your first image and can definitely see that Kokopelli when I squint. I'm having a hard time picking up any letters though.

You must mean a weight of 0.8 g, not 0.08 g. It might help to show photos of some of the other ones.

Possibly what they refer to as a Widows Mite?
Rather worn if it is. Might want to look at yours and see if any of the features match.
