I've stumbled across an old bottle dump on the river bank near where I live. So, I decided to go detecting to see what I could find. First, let me say that I found my first ever Indian Head Penny which is also the oldest coin that I have ever found, 1904! However, I did find a few things that I need help with as far as identification goes.

First, let's get this one out of the way. Yes, I know its a spoon, but I was hoping someone could give me an idea of how old this thing is?

Next are these two small glass objects. They look hand blown as there are air bubbles within the glass and you can see what appears to be where they cut the glass on the narrow end of the bigger one. I'm not really sure what these are. They look to be some sort of glass stopper for a bottle, but I'm not positive. Any help whatsoever would be great...

Thanks in advance...

Agree with the stoppers but the spoon I can't help much. Is it attracted to a magnet?

No, it's not attracted to a magnet at all.

those glass bottle stoppers were the bottle caps of their day, they had cork wrapped around the shaft.

Nice bottle stoppers. If I were you I would dig that dump up there could be some nice bottles burried there.

Exactly what I was thinking too. Could be some nice drug store bottles and straight sided soda waiting to go home. Good Luck!!
