I found these at a new site after a couple of hours. 1903 barber Dime very pitted which is strange for silver. 50 caliber round ball, the hat pin ( at least I think it's a hat pin ) has the full pin which is about 5 inches long. The ID tag is driving me crazy, the backside has absolutely nothing except for the same Lines on the edge as seen on the front side With the number 138. Not sure what this came off of, the area I am searching was settled in the late 1600s.

It's just a tool tag I think. People on TNet a lot of times those tags belonged to an individual and they would place their tag on the peg they took a tool from. It's not from the 1600s... I'm no expert though I still have a lot to learn. I have two of those tags from the last few weeks. Same size and design. HH!

It could also be an ear tag for an animal. I found one similar to it. It was for a mule.
