Yes, that's my guess... tiny spaceship.

What's inside your tiny spaceship? Cut it in half.

Haha, I thought is was the size of a coconut 😆

Interesting choice of measurement... assuming you mean the coins and not half of something. So about 2 inches?

Maybe because it looks like a very immature coconut.
