    Need help with Button, Copper cone, and other items

    Went out yesterday and found these items. This area has produced slave tags, reales, and bottles and many buttons. The first Item was a button with Best stamped on back but it looks as though they used an upside down R for a B. Nest was a copper cone that is pretty bent up. At first glance I thought it was some type of filter until I could tell it was in a cone shape. It is around 5" in length. Last is an item that that may be made of bone. When I got it home it separtad and I could see the metal rod inside. Any ideas.

    I think you were right when you said the cone shaped piece was used as a filter. And the handle is from a untensil like a knife, spoon or fork seeing it's bone. IMHO, woodstock
