New farm. Lots of odds & ends plus a mystery disk

I hit a farm I've been driving by for years. The owner told me nobody had ever detected and the property was at least 200 years old. As soon as I got into the field there was crockery and glass everywhere and my first hit was the chape. I thought I was going to find a lot more, but sadly, it was not meant to be.

Nice Start.
The round is interesting, I see a cross :dontknow:
What kind of reading? Hi lead or low pewter?

Low pewter.
Thanks, very interesting.
maybe labor token or toasted CFT :dontknow:

I'm not familiar with either of those, enlighten me please.
I've heard that workers would be given simple metal tokens for job well done or extra work, these could be turned in at paytime for bonus $$$.
CFT = counterfiet, lots of lightly struck/poorly cast fakes made back in the day,
I have a few so poorly made that I can't see anyone accepting them as genuine,
maybe they were 'trial runs' and intentionally discarded, they were all found in the same general area.
example, a lead Draped Cent weighing over 18 grams... odd :dontknow:
