A weird piece of silver, old US Army(?), Knife and 4 old wheat's

Spent about 7 hours out detecting. Didn't find any silver coins, but found what I believe to be a silver(?). The old US Army item was hiding at about 10" under the ground. The folding knife was nice, but the wood handles are almost gone and I also found 4 wheat's: 1918(good shape), 1919,1920 and a 1935. The plastic coin that looks gold almost surprised me for a couple of seconds, the large silver looking disk did take my breath for a second. Thanks for looking.

It looks like you were detecting a fairly old site, HH!

Congrats on your finds. Love the US piece! Interesting piece of silver there too. Looks like it melted.
