need help with id.

[ATpro5]

I have posted this many months ago and never got a id. This was dug in a place with nothing modern at all. Only colonial items have been dug here. Flat buttons, musket balls, ect. Looks like a zipper... But they didn't have zippers back then did they? Haha maybe someone can help. The main piece with two holes is brass and the other part is iron. About the size of a us dime.

It looks like a winder key of a pocket watch or standing clock,but not sure....

Looks like part of a chain link, from a chain driven engine.

Maybe a wall hook - the two holes could have been to screw it into the wall?
