I went digging for about 4 hours today. Three flat buttons, old little lock, A thingy I don't know what it could be with the stone/diamond, tons of old furniture tacks and the square nails are rose heads, Those are home made nails from 1700s..

All the goodies I dug today.

Anything on the front of the buttons?... Not sure on the stone thingy but probably glass. Maybe off of some sort of ornamental horse tack? Nice day!!

The thingy I believe is a button thing like a cuff link They are called "Tuxedo Studs".
 

Nice finds! The thingy definitely looks like studs to dress up an outfit. They're used instead of the regular buttons. Let us know what kind of stone is in them.
 

Awesome hunt, congratulations! :occasion14:
 

Nice group of finds, well done! Congrats and HH
 

The old padlock could be 18th C.
