2 ID's - cup and scabbard?

Any help would be appreciated!

First up, this funky little tin or aluminum cup. It's got a nifty design on it with an old baker woman on it. Anyone recognize it?

Next, this other thing (nickel for reference). I dug the smaller piece a ways away from it, but there has been some recent earth movement in this area, so it could be from the same piece. My inclination says so. It's obviously something, and interesting how it tapers like that. The line running down the right side of the back appears to be a seam, broken over most of the length, but still intact just above where the nickel is. Thoughts?

Maybe a bayonet scabbard? Hard to tell from the picture.

Agree. Possibly the end of a CW bayonet scabbard.

The tea cup is from a child's set. Mid 20th C, I'd say.

Do you have any reference to the size of this? Hard for me to tell just based on the tile in the background, thanks.

With there being a baker on it my guess aould be its a 1 cup for measuring flour,sugar etc.

Any other thoughts on scabbard thingie? It's really got me curious, now that I've heard that from a couple people. I noticed the resemblance when I found it, but something about it didn't seem right. I guess I thought I'd know a scabbard when I saw one, but maybe I was wrong! lol

Oh yea, sorry! The coin to the upper left of it is a nickel.

This piece is too big to be a bayonet scabbard. It is a piece of crumpled up brass that looks suspiciously like a bayonet scabbard though. Scabbard tips are made of thicker brass than what you posted. I have no idea on the cup.
