I found one of these before in an early site but the other one was plain. Have never figured out what they are.

They were attached to something with an iron pin?

ah , those go with those brass or copper alloy round/oval and sometimes retangular tags with the 2 holes that everyone seems to find but everyone is unsure of what they are . heres an example of the tags i'm talking about your item had 2 nails that went into the holes on these tags and fastened it to something like a saddle or ect.
