Last weeks hunt snares small ring. Maybe you can help ID a couple items?

A quick post to show what i found last week. Nothing special but...if every hunt produced spectacular finds, the thrill of finding great things would be lost.

So here is a picture of everything significant. Clad was found along with massive amounts of trash (Not pictured)
1 old ring, two wheats, some sort of pendent, a button, a whatcha ma thingy and a Merc


When i first dug this ring the glint of gold caught my eye.


Very quickly i realized it was not gold but gold plated instead.
This is a very small ring. Notice the lump on the side. A Repair in the works?


The next find was also interesting. 4 pull tabs and two nails came out of the hole before this button finally appeared.
Not sure if its old or not. Will get a picture of the back side later.


Finally...this strange thing. Any ideas what it might be?


So..HH everyone! and thanks for your thoughts on the thingy

Your strange thingy appears to be a bent cuff link missing what ever adorned the faces Above that appears to be the remnants of an enameled or painted sweater pin I would have taken this day Not spectacular but definitely a rescue Check the cuff link for silver, it looks it

So something might have been attached where the holes are? makes sense. Thanks for the ID. Sorry about not getting a picture up of the back side of the painted button. It does have a full shank on the back side...i assumed everyone knew it was a button...my fault for assuming. I have added the word "button" to the description over the picture.

Congrats on the nice finds!

I wonder if the mystery item is a cuff-link

I am going with the crowd that says cuff link. That was my first thought when I saw the pic. Nice finds.
