Colonial mystery item and more!!!!

[sscindercoop]

I believe the coins are a 1770's French 1 Sol and a 1700's Irish George lll Hibernia Half Penny. The small women mystery piece is made of brass and the face appears to be made of iron, No idea what it could be so any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking HH

Or jewelry box.

I jumped to my own conclusions then checked the comments. I landed on a small lid clasp like a jewelry box or perhaps even a book. Dunno

Tea boxes and early sugar boxes had locks on them.

Unlikely to be a women. It looks like a shell motif in-between 2 fitting holes. The iron was part of 1 fixing, the closest guess would be a very early sword belt fitment. (but not 100%)
