Anyone Find Non-Iron Relics Stuck in Rust Blobs? Cool skeleton key, lapel pin and a spoon.

Detector(s) used
Started with a Minelab xterra 505. Then Equinox 600 with stock coil, xl coil and sinper coil depending on circumstances. Now use a manticore mostly or oversized coil on equinox.

These were found underwater at the same spot. I've not cracked them open yet. But I've found the same pin in here several times so that's why I've already id it as a Holy Name Society lapel pin. Lot of dumping and big iron. I've learned to check the iron globs as my first paratrooper wings that belongs to the mp collar disk I found in may was also in iron blob (should have taken a picture of it). The iron is helpful as it becomes the sacrificial oxidizer and the brass items don't really corroded as much as they would outside the iron. Found a few coins stuck in here this way too just early memorials, few wheatys.

Added pics of the two after cracking them open.
