1722 Rosa American!!!

I figured it was a King George 1st 2nd or 3rd, but the corrosion and pitting through me off, so I thought maybe its a counterfeit. Then I saw the rose on the back and looked it up and its a William Wood Rosa America token, that were rejected by the colonies. I have never found one before. The reason its in such poor condition is that it is made of 24.7% zink. the rest is 75%copper and .3% silver. I am just super excited I found this coin. I also found a great Waltham watch factory pocket watch. Unfortunately I washed the face with water and rubbed off the black hand painted numbers, but you live and learn. I am assuming its gold plated. Also found 6 Winthrop Beach Casino umbrella tags. Casino's have been illegal in mass for years, so I have to figure out whats the deal with these.
The other interesting bronze piece looks like it would have went on the end of something.
