I have a few items that I dont really know anything about, The P pendant really confuses me because I have looked online and cant find anything like it (it might just be junk) but it was in my grandfather's box of war metals from vetenam so i dont know why he kept it in there.

And the really shiny 22cal bullet I found while digging in our yard, and it says US on the bottom, and i cant find anybody that knows anything about it (they never seen one) but I dont think it old because it is soo shiny.

And the unshot old bullet and button, I found them in an old cabin in the woods in the window seal by sticking a stick in it and just fooling around, (there was also a really pretty turquois bead with them) and the bullet has U stamped on the bottom, and it has a brass look to it. The button is werid looking to me because the bottom doesn't have the ring loop that I usually see on old buttons. But I guess its a clothes button.

So I guess my question is how old are they or just information in general :dontknow:

The "button" is an early to mid 20th C men's shirt stud. I have similar ones I use with my tuxedo shirt. They came out of my wife's grandmother's sewing machine drawer and are likely from the 30's or 40's.
