Miscellaneous Items from CW site... need 2 ID's

Seven · Nov 17, 2014

Here is the other stuff I found last week hunting the Union campsite. I do have some mystery items. In the two closeup pictures I have a brass clip of some kind in one photo and three iron pieces in the other. Can anyone ID these?

not sure what the proper ID is for the iron pieces.. have dug a few and assumed they were large rivets of some type.. interested to hear what they are too

the brass piece looks like it could be a broken and bent spoon handle and stem bent over on itself

Yeah hope someone chimes in with some information. I dug another one of the iron "rivets" again today.

How long are the iron rivets? I'm thinking maybe used to fix wood handles to a knife or tool of some sort?

Chip, The rivets are 1.5 inches long and the pin is a quarter-inch in diameter. I would think too wide for a knife. I actually found another one Friday, the same as the other three. All three have come from the same general area of the camp but were not really close together. If you come up with anything, let me know.
