The token you found is a Mardi Gras coin from a 1977 parade. Those buttons are really cool, love the GF button. Good digs!
 

Nice finds! In the last pic at the bottom, what is that thing? I found the same one. Looks like a handle of some sort.
 

The bottom piece is a tent guy... the tightener for a tarp or tent rope. 
 

If you have an electrician friend he'd appreciate the ground rod clamp. The last time I had to buy one they were up to 8 bucks at the home dumpster!....lol

well almost :( everyone.

Again, nice finds.
