A small silver egg cup like thing, and a small token that says, Lone Star on it. I would appreciate any thoughts on what something might be and how old it might be. Thanks! Cindy

I don't think your Lonestar item is a token. It looks like more like an end cap off something.

I think C is for bared wire.You would put something to hold the roll of wire in the rings on the ends to unroll it.

"E" looks like a sediment bowl on an old carburator fuel line filter.

Best,

I think
" E " is a screw-in - wheel-bearing dust cap, as used on
older cars and was used on some Model-A Fords.

" H " is about the size of the caps used on top or
bottom of the king-pins on cars and trucks using
a straight axle front end, to retain grease and to keep
dirt and water out.

All good guesses but its a Model T radiator cap. http://www.antiquemystique.com/pages/6604_jpg.htm

I agree. I can see how someone might guess slot machine token but it looks too flimsy. Is it aluminum?

The Lone Star item is a button face off of an overall button, circa 1900-1908.

Thanks Everyone for your feedback so far! bigcypress looks like you did it again that photo link again was amazing! I love photo answers! I called the round thing a token for lack of other things to call it, and yes it is flimsy, it was burried under a tree stump at an old homestead site in east Texas.

Yea, you pretty much need to see a matching pic before you can call it solved.

I have been googeling that brand for a half an hour, I can't find anything but a blog with a bunch of advertisement, but I will keep looking, thanks for your help. Cindy

I think J may be a canning jar lid but I think you knew that. Can we see the glass insert? http://www.etsy.com/listing/82959119/vintage-zinc-lids-ball-mason-canning-jar

I think I see a tiny fired cap from a muzzleloader.

bigcypress, I am pretty sure if you can't find it, it doesn't exist! You seem to be the king of photo matching!
