All day hunt =Silver and Gold

[VERMONTIS]

This weekend’s finds Silver butter knife, reverse shows hallmark and who it was made for, nice bronze buckle, ribbed button that I need help with ID, 2 other buttons, last but not least-GOLD, possibly? A triangle shaped piece of Gold with apparent impurities (they have turned green in spots) Seems to have been cut diagonally from a rectangle. Side view shows it goes all the way through the piece, 7grams.
