Another adventure in the watershed produced more relics. First item dug was this Sargent & Co. padlock (c. 1850).

Other objects shown include collar stud (flattened), flat button, harmonica reeds, personalized belt buckle with script initial,IMG_8250.webpIMG_8251.webp

S & Co., standing for Sargent and Company.
 
Nice finds! Off-hand, the belt buckle kind of looks "Old English" style? And the bottom piece looks similar to a Nash automobile emblem?
