Flat buttons and need some relic ID's

Went out last evening to a site where I just found some good coins and only ended up with a few relics. Stopped at another site and got these 3 nice flat buttons, 1 of them having a good amount of gilt still. Can any of you identify the 2 objects with the round heads on the right. Also not sure of the item that looks like a big shotgun shell. Thanks for your help.

Me thinks they are the ends of a spur too. Great finds...d2

triple agreed, spur ends.

Is that a ink stamp (seal) on the left of the buttons?

That is a neat early Michigan assemblage.

You are finding some flat buttons, early civilian spurs, some early metallic cartridge ammunition.

Is the bullet a Henry?
The only marking is an H, so maybe so. What can you tell me about a Henry bullet/era?

I am not sure what that item was. I thought it was some piece of jewelry but it is smooth on the underside. It appears to be gold plated because of having some crud build-up.
