Jealous there’s no 1000 year old coins in the states… well depending on how much the Vikings spread on the continent… I can’t imagine having the chance of finding metal items thousands of years old at any time

In using online similar matches.
The 2 items come up as Mace Heads.

They have very similar characteristics.

Welcome to Tnet and thanks for sharing your interesting finds.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say those are tuning pegs from a stringed musical instrument. I would bet they’re from a tamburica (or tambura/tanbura), a long-necked lute-like instrument that has a several varieties differing in the number of strings which originated in Southern or Central Asia (Mesopotamia and Persia/Iran).

It was believed to have been introduced to Croatia during the Byzantine Empire via the Turkish conquests between the 14th-16th Centuries and has ultimately been adopted as your national folk instrument.

These are modern pegs, carved from wood:

The lower pic may be one of those seals they used on bags of wheat/barley.

Thank you . I am not sure if that is it considerimg mine are made from bronze and they are pretty heavy . But maybe they used them before wood . Thank you very much that is a good idea. Some one told me they could be parts of a medieval dagger. And big bronze needle, but still I haven't found anything like it.

Is there wood or metal in the inside of that one on the left in your hand?
Looks like a bit of wood protruding...

Or is there anything on the inside of them at all?

They look a lot like the pommel from a knife or small sword..
