📌The artifacts were isolated and discovered in a large area, near a ridge road, which crosses an old forest and are from several historical periods :
➡️ a.) Middle Ages :
- iron warhammer, rare;
- 3 spurs with a wheel, also having the system of attachment to the boot, 14th-16th centuries;
- 3 firestarters;
- side guard of a peasant knife "Bauernwehr" 15th-16th centuries;
- two-link iron horse bit;
- 4 iron arrowheads of different typologies;
➡️ b.) Late Middle Ages / Premodern :
- bridegroom ring, made of copper, engraved, specific to the popular men's wear from the Călimani Mountains area, Romania, 18th-20th centuries;
➡️ c.) Objects of uncertain period :
- iron sickle;
- iron nails, whose typology is specific to both the 2nd Iron Age (La Tène)/Roman antiquity and the Middle Ages/premodern;
For those interested, the photo scale on the ruler is 1 cm, and photo editing to dimensions is in millimeters.

That war hammer is awesome. It definitely looks like it would kill. Will it be cleaned of the rust?

Indeed, it was primarily used to destroy armor. I gave it to the institutions of the Romanian state according to the law in the condition in which I found it. I only washed it with water to clean it of dirt. It will probably be restored and reconditioned by specialists.
