New Finds

[Athens]

Good morning everyone, Hopefully everyone is healthy and safe.I was able to get out a few times after work this week.Found some cool items I wanted to share.I did go to old fair ground and it was a bust ,lots of trash as expected.lol.I found one item which I don't know what it is,It was deep and in second layer of soil,it wasn't far from musket ball.It seems crudely made but has a pattern on it and is shaped like a lever.Anyone have any thoughts.I would love to identify it.I was thinking possible part to musket? IDK.
Have a great day everyone,and thanks 🙏

I forgot to mention that one of my finds I didn't post due to having a family in towns name on it.Any way It is I believe his dairy mans licence,it's a brass tag 3 inches long 1 inch wide was attached to a piece of deteriated leather.I researched it he was born in 1877.His descendents still live in town .The house was built in 1836.and still in family.Anyway I intend to give back to them soon.Just wanted to share the story, maybe I'll get access there? 😂 Enjoy everyone

That second item might be a bannerstone(?)--not sure--I only recently learned of them.

Nice grouping of recoveries. Congrats

Well done on the heel plate, and crotal bell.

Can't get a real good sense on the 2nd item.
A size would be good, as well as close up photo on a neutral background in natural lighting. (Asking for a lot-sorry)
It's an interesting looking item.

When you post pictures of finds asking what they might be it is very important to post pictures of all sides.

Good pics. Still drawing a blank though. It looks familiar to me, maybe it'll come to me when I stop thinking about it.
