A lot of variety today at the 18th century Settler site. Need some help identifying some things. If you know what any of it is, comment below.

1. The capsule looking thing with a hole in it reads nickel on my detector. Doesn't seem to be hollow. I can't pick through it.

2. I dont know what the thin second piece is. Just noticed two little holes. Added a picture at the end.

3. 18th century spade end fish hook. Any additional information on this? Rarity?

4. The chain is super cool. They are all different size rings. Love it.

5. I need help with the 9 inch tool that I found deep and under a large rock.

6. The glass was a super cool find. No idea what it is from. This was also under a very large rock. Added a picture to show air bubble in the glass.

Thanks yall.

At first glance the 9” tool looks like a draw knife. However I’ve not seen one with such large handle mounts.

Number 1 is a parasol end piece, and number 6 is the base to an old ale bottle.

You’re probably right. My initial thought was a log dog, but it looks thin and too short.
