Hello I found these three objects metal detecting a field. The area had revolutionary war and civil war activity. The big piece looks like it has knife carved marks? The small ball I was thinking a pistol ball? And the larger ball is flat on one side from maybe being fired from a rifle?

We all ways called the flattened one a poker chip.

Thanks guys! I've only just started getting into the relic hunting side of metal detecting and I must say I'm hooked. Now if I could only find a cannon ball that would really make my day!

Looks more like pistol balls by the size of them. The big flat piece could've been made into a game chip of some sort.
