Two items found near 1700/1800s foundations

Anyone able to help me identify these two items I found today? They were found at two separate sites, so likely not related. Both are definitely old, but the larger item seems much older. It's heavily oxidized, but is a heavy solid metal cylindrical shape. The smaller one has a bevel to one end of it. Both were found along the foundation of two very old structures. Using a Garrett Ace 350, but ready to move up into the big boy leagues LOL
