More finds from the yard

[NewAtThis]

Hello everyone. I've found a couple more items while metal detecting in my yard. Does anyone have any ideas? Based on the other items I've found here, anything since about 1900 would be a good guess. If I can provide any more information, please let me know.

Thank you!

Not sure what's in the first photo, second looks like a roofing nail and a "cutter" off a hay cutter. Can't think of the right name.

Right on with the sickle bar guard. The top piece without knowing the size looks a very early sparkplug wire end.

Yes to the sickle bar mower part. Thank you! Google says those mowers were invented in the 1860s. Seems like it might be hard to date other than to say it was created after that.

And here's another picture of the other item, this time with a quarter for scale. Thanks again.

Absolutely, I missed that entirely. I'm sorry about that. I need to post a picture of the other side of this item. Thank you for pointing me to those guidelines. I'll try to update my photos later today.
