Carrying Metal gifts to USA (elephant, eagle & peacock) for my friends

According to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection:

As a visitor to the United States what are my exemptions on gifts for family and friends?

As a non-resident, you are allowed up to $100 worth of merchandise,
free of duty and internal revenue tax, as gifts for other people. To
claim this exemption, you must remain in the United States for at
least 72 hours, and the gifts must accompany you.

This $100 gift exemption, or any part of it, can be claimed only once
every six months. You may include 100 cigars within the gift
exemption, but alcoholic beverages may not be included. The cigars may
not be of Cuban origin.

So Customs won’t care about those gifts. TSA won’t mind them either as they don’t remotely look like weapons.
