Todays find, first Shield Nickel 1872!

[WYO_Yote]

Ground started to thaw a bit and decided to head out with my metal detector. Very productive couple of hours.

If anyone has any insight on any of these pieces, particularly the "wick/lantern" piece and spoon, I would sincerely appreciate it!

Thanks,
kj
