Not sure what they are either but anything you pull out of the ground is a nice find N_E_W_D_I_G_G_E_R.
 

Hello N E W D I G G E R,

Welcome to this place. The first piece has the look of a crusty Belaying pin, though is probably something else...

logging gear most likely
 

The one with the foot looks like it may be a leg off an old pot belly stove.....
 

just got done doing some research at my local town hall lol went to pay a fine and noticed all the old pictures around on the walls and found out in the woods behind my house was actually a place where an old railroad train tracks used to run right where my house where maybe there train parts?
 

1. Hitch Pin
2. Wood Stove leg
 

Might be a early rail car pin. Check out railroad link and pin on your browser. Was there ever a old railroad line near where your hunting?

It also could be a hinge pin off the same stove door
 

The 2nd and 3rd pictures look like railroad spikes. A little bent but that's what they look like.
