Decorative lid and rust relic

[Michiganne]

Howdy all. I found these two items recently and wondered if anyone might have an idea what they might be. First item looks like a small decorative lid of some type. Second item I was guessing might be part of a latch.

TIA for any help.

Hi Michie,
Well, I recognize the wheatie. Aside from that, the pendant/emblem appears to be fairly modern; not sure the significance. May have some copper in it by the looks of the green tint. Sorry I'm such an idiot in metals.

The encrusted thing appears more intriguing. Have you tried electrolysis on it to unbake it? It's not hard; just takes some stamina to put it all together and watch it disintegrate. I rather enjoy it. Lots of instructions around. Interesting items. Thanks.

How's the electrolysis coming along?
