Nice relics. What's the brass object in the middle of your hand? Looks like part of a brass gorget.
 

is that a tooth in the middle? Bone to the left? Nice finds
 

The piece in the middle could be a repurposed section of a butt plate from a trade musket.......I'm thinking the cast, drilled shank buttons date to the mid 1700's, but am not an expert...........
Nice finds! Love the points!

Iowa Dale... thank you for the info on the button... i have a close up of it on my previous thread. wow, excited that it may be that old!!
 

the object above the button is a broken trade ring...obviously the stone or whatever was in it is missing :(
