4TH COPPER,SPANISH SILVER & A KNEE BUCKLE

Sniffy called me later in the morning said ya wanna hit that field again?
he hadda twist my arm to get me to go but,i caved in!
a few buttons here and there,dug the same type as i did the other day.flower pattern in oval so,there goes my military hopes on the 1st one.
got a 1941-S Washington,a wheatie 1937,a memorial penny,then i saw mangled plow damaged silver in the hole.was so worn i said to Jessie it's gotta be a spanish half reale(you can make out the last few letters of carolus). got a no date draped bust Large cent,a lead seal and a plow damaged knee buckle.
so sad to see how these farm field coppers come out
any ideas on the green patina'd tool type thing?
this field has given up 5 colonial coppers and 4 silvers so far.gonna keep workin this field for all its worth.

I found a small silver disc just like that, no writing though. not even sure if its silver, but its paper thin and pitted, good job
