Re: i need some id help brass and lead

In order to figure out the first item, we need something for size reference. I think I know what it is but the size will determine that.

Yes. If it is around 2 inches in diameter, then the first item is a bridle rosette.

If it is larger than 2 inches and smaller than 5, I would say it is a blinder rosette. I have one that is about 3.5 inches made of all lead. There would have been a pair. One on the outside of each blinder.
