Can anyone ID this?

Any ideas on what this could be? Seems to be made of bronze or copper, I think.

Cheers all!

1909 Dot Penny Question

Hi all. Found myself a 1909 dot penny in a recent bulk purchase.

My question is about the obverse. There appears to be a dimple in his cheek (easier to see in last pic). I assume this is just coincidence and not some error?

My first love token!

Finally found my first love token today!

Under the right right I can just make out the left side of William III's head.

I can now cross off this bucket-lister for me 😁

Also, any ideas on the markings on one side? It's on one of the bends so I'm inclined to believe it's from the tool they used to bend it? Interesting regardless.

Id request

Thoughts on this?

Made of silver, clearly broken off on both sides. Post medieval whistles seem similar. Someone has also suggested a cigarette holder.

Has some patterning on one side. Has nice intricate coiling too but sadly crushed.

Any ideas?

Found this today, seems to have some sort of patterning around the edge. Bronze or copper I think. Weighs about 8 grams.

Badge or brooch?

Found this today. Looks to me like some badge or brooch maybe? Weighs around 15.4g.

Attempted a light brushing to get some details and can make out two birds in both top corners, facing outwards. Perhaps flowers beneath them?

The pin on the back looks like it's snapped on one end and I can't make out if the other side has a hinge or similar.
