I went treasure hunting at an old homesteaders site in Chromo Colorado. Need help identifying what these items are (pics 1901, 1903 and 1904).

Additional finds were beer bottle, pink glass, arrow heads, horseshoe, mower cycle blades, silver platted spoon.

They look like horse/saddle attachment points.

See this is your first post C. M. welcome from Western Slope Colorado I agree with RTR horse bridle or saddle buckles.

Welcome to the site! Old Colorado homesites are the best, looks like good place for more, good luck if you go back!

Only 1 is horse related. The oval is a light weight rolled construction sash buckle. the other is either an overall buckle or a pants strap buckle.

Think top right matches your first item

I like the Schoenhofen bottle, that brewery was closed down in 1924 because of Prohibition. Personally I think any embossed pre prohibition beer bottles are cool, but you have to wonder how it got all the way to Colorado

The second pic is some sort of buckle and the third pic is a sash buckle
