✅ SOLVED Various items from an 1890's town site

[EagleEye1]

Hello all,

Various finds with my new detector at per the County map was a homestead in the 1890's (now a park).

Lot of old pull tabs etc, but a few items not sure. The bone looking item fragments rang up on the detector and pin pointer very strong and NO IDEA what they are!?

The clasp looking thing, no idea? Doesn't look old, but never know as a newbie and then the wire looking thing. Thanks for any info..

The first photo does show a button clasp, but what you're holding I'm unsure of as it could be anything. The 2nd photo seems to indicate that it held something in place while being put into something else. I know, that's pretty vague, but it does have writings on it that I just couldn't make out. Clean it up some more to see what the writings are and it may give a clue as to what it is.

P.S. By button clasp I do not mean of the type for binding clothing, but more like what political buttons would be like.

The 2nd pic is a snap-in for mounting coax cable on a tower (radiofrequency transmission line).

Thanks for the replies. You mean the bone looking thing that indeed rings up as metal being an old "button clasp" for a political button of some kind?

Thanks for the "like".
Looking at Pic #2 again, here's the exact model #:
It's an RFS 1/2" snap-in hanger: https://www.solidsignal.com/rfs-1-2-snap-in-coax-cable-hanger-kit-915659

They also make them in larger sizes (7/8" coax, etc..).

I'm not saying it to definitely be a political button, but it appears like it without the button itself attached. It could've even been a lost ID tag of some sort. Keep looking and you may find the rest of it so you'll know.

Now that was a great ID. I've got experience in radio and didn't even put 2 and 2 together.
