Finds from 2 yards. Bullets & gold watch guts!

Some bullets, a ring, toe plate, lead (one piece may have been melted out of a plate), and the guts to what I think was a gold pocket watch. If anyone can help with the pin with the anchor or the watch please do. The watch I think reads ( Siu___ool ) at the top. I can't make out all the letters. And down at the bottom it reads ( __binson ), most likely Robinson. And the pin is blue around the rim and has some writing I can't make out. I can make out one word (force). There is an anchor in the center with 2 stars above it.

Your Pin i am guessing has something to do with the navy. I have been researching navy buttons this past week. I think I saw some with the stars above the anchor like yours. I will look again and see what I could come up with. Your yards might be close to a Civil war camp with all those dropped bullets. Something went on there. Awesome finds.

Both yards are in the middle of a huge camp. They were found in Harpers Ferry West Virginia
