I'll use one of my daggers. Try and wiggle it out.
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.

Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Vik looks curiously over Tub's shoulder to see what's wedged in the crack.

"Be careful, Tub... could be a Death Monger hiding in there!" he jokes around, slapping his fellow guild-deputy on the back.

Sweating nervously at Vik's comment, Tub tries to see what he can do before trying the water idea:

Tubs dagger starts to get hung but he manages to move it free. he is able to catch under the object and with a shove press it out of the crack.

picking it up it looks to be a large coin very tarnished and corroded like it has been in the crack a very long time. the edge that was facing out of the crack is worn but the rest seems in good shape more protected form the elements wedged in the crack.

Tub squints his eyes and takes a look, anything he can read?

Then he shows it to Cil.

You clean away the corrosion to find a larger than normal gold coin. pressed into the center is an insignia of a falcon wings spread and talons out. There is a languiage you do not recognize written aorunf the edges of the coin.

Osric, nearby enough to see whats going on (I hope) will look down at any similiar stone and start to roll and whack at it with his hammer, as if looking for a weak spot to crack it open.

Cilian examines the coin with an odd look on his face.

"Well... Maybe the coin was wrapped in something and made into a pendant or..."He rubs on the coin again with a bit of force this time,"this isn't gold. Gold is a completely inert metal; it doesn't contain iron, so it can't rust or corrode."

Cilian starts to launch into a long-winded monologue about the various properties of gold and its uses, aside from its currency value, but realizes nobody appears interested at the moment, so he bends back over the coin to see if he can determine what the symbols on it are...

you are unable to decifer the strange writing, but the coin feels heavier than you would expect it to.

"Wonder how old it be? You think it's worth anything, Cil?" Vik queries curiously as his magely companion scrutinizes it more closely.

Cilian shrugs."Worth holding onto, I suppose. Maybe someone back in town can decipher the reading. Or there is a spell that would reveal the nature of the writing, but I don't know it. Might be something Harold could teach me, though..."

You should put it around your neck and see if it'll tell you what it does. :D
