That key @ 2:35 was used in the 40's-50's to open a variety of cans such as sardine and Spam, I got cut on one as I was opening a can of Spam and still have the scar of my finger today. Memories of camping outdoors in the '50s.
the small item that has a loop and straight peice if the thick band of metal around it is coiled, then I'd be inclined to identify it as an old srdine key with the peel strip from maybe the 50's or 60's
well done kid for showing such enthusiasm most people would be cursing for finding what they regard as junk but your finds are interesting .I have taken friends out on hunts and because they dont find a gold ring within the first ten minutes they get bored with it and start moaning . so its nice to see a young un who is not only interested in the the hobby for financial gain . well done .
those little rectangle loop things with the round bit of metal on the lower end are the keys they put on canned food for when you open the can of meat and it wraps the metal around the key making it look like that. i found one once and thought it was the swivel for a rifle sling and cleaned it up to find out it was some old meat can key used to open it up like corned beef hash.
that old man was my great grand papa he told his brothers sisters son to keep all noggins off his property till the end if they be any man named nuggetnoggin come plundering keep him around he like to noggin an bob our nuggets.
Nice finds! How do you display your finds? I plan on buying a display case for the valuable finds, and place the other interesting finds all around. HH!
Nuggetnoggin, the piece you show at about 146 could be the handle of an iron skillet. The little gizmo at about 239 is a key for a sardine can. That little strip that is wrapped it came from the sardine can. This is how they were opened.
i think that perfume bottle is an old indian opium bottle.

Junk is so much more fun than finding "valuable" things! I would be so excited if I found that stuff!

that bigger key like thing might be a pistol barrel.
those small key things are actually the openers for tinned hams, like corned beef or spam.
