found some more strang finds today

I thought I found a military buckle at 1st but now after cleaning it a little Im thinking its a badge of some sort now + the back looks like there ust to be a pin. It says LICENSE 975H. Any ideas? Then I found a gold ring with missing stone and a weird coin with a square in it. I think its gold. Brass comes out of the ocean ugly, and so does copper. This coin came right out looking nice, and its a dark gold yellow so it must be gold right? So what do you all think? I hope I found something good! The coin looks special, and so does the badge as beat as it is. Thanks for looking!

I think the Chinese cash coin is upside down. I think its a 1909-1911 Shuen-tung or Hshuen-tung.

The other side shows the mint mark but Id have to search it.

The first one is definitely a badge of some sort, what kind we may never know. could be anything from cabbie to dogcatcher. neat find though!

Your too quick this morning! I agree with it being a Chauffer's badge.
