Top Right (second picture) is a cica 3rd century disc brooch. On the reverse it should have whats left of a catchplate & a scar where the pin came from.

The other two look more modern, maybe a candle snuffer & ??

Thanks much Crusader . :) The larger peice is made of bronse and very heavy. I have been all over the net and can't find anything like it. I thought that mabe they were flowers at one time but no clue.On this end . ??? You called the broach just right there is one side of a catch on the other side of the broach. :)

To me the large piece looks more Brass? than bronze, hard to tell on the photo. But I too have never seen anything similar. I have had a few of the cone shaped thingys.

Crusader ,I guess that one piece could be brass. It was found on an old battle field but I have no clue what it is.
