Finally broke into the 1800s!!!

Decided to hit this park near my house for an about an hour cane up with 1 1882 IH. I've only been detecting for a few months now so this has got my pretty excited. I also found 1 brass? Button and a whatsitmabob.
Is there any way to get more of the detail on the back of the IH to come out? I got it soaking in olive oil...oh and the whatsitmabob is a little bigger than half dollar
Ps: it might be 1888 it looks like it more in person but through pic maybe 82 maybe it's a 88 7/8 lol

I think that round thing is a hem weight or a curtain weight
