Nice relics. What's the brass object in the middle of your hand? Looks like part of a brass gorget.

The piece in the middle could be a repurposed section of a butt plate from a trade musket.......I'm thinking the cast, drilled shank buttons date to the mid 1700's, but am not an expert...........
Nice finds! Love the points!
