Buttons, Buckles, Bullet and a Brooch- UPDATED, not a brooch, but a round thing

[hammered]

I went out detecting yesterday but only managed half an hour before the heavens opened, I did manage an "Armada" token and what the UKDFD think might be a suspension mount. Anyway, I managed to get out today for 2 hours and did a lot better and I'm planning to go back there tomorrow

The first two pics are of the Armada token





The next pic is of the possible suspension mount.



The next three pics are of a complete Annular Brooch circa 13th 14th century







Next pic are the buckles and the brooch



Some of todays buttons



Some of the other bits



The last pic is of a live round that came out of the ground today, it has W.R.A. Co .45 AC stamped on the bottom




Thanks for looking and HH

I'm a professional, I don't dink anything . Seriously though, that's some of the gilt still left on it, at least it means there might be a pendant in the field

Just kidding .. there are things in our past that I not like , and to command the Armada to invade England in 1588 is one of them.
In the maritime museum in my town we have a replica of a ship of the time.

No, you were right first time. The books say Brooch, the buckles have a dividing bar.

It is a Buckle the Brooches were recesed(see below) were the pin came out the Frame, the tongue on the one posted(buckle) clearly shows the tongue around the main frame
