Interestin metal detector finds...

The kids and me decided to pick a perty day (in the 60's) and see what gold treasure we could find last week. I've been REAL sick lately and could only stand it for a little while...but we found some neat stuff in the hour or so we were out. My son did most of the diggin and he done a fine job.
Neatest thing...the 2 shotgun tops in the pic are OLD. One is a Winchester NuBlack with a red patina. The other, a rem-umc shureshot. All of the others look to be rifle rounds...maybe 30 cal...the shorter ones maybe a 44 or 45...but the tallest has the same dia. as a 50 cal. but measures exactly 1 1/16" long. Found some old cut nails...and those 2 hunks of...stuff...dunno what they are, but they are iron.
While I caint identify what all of em are exactly, I can tell you that whoever hunted the woods at my house missed alot....lol
Anyway, if ya'll can enlighten me on some of these..esp. that long one...I would love to hear what ya come up with.
