Hello Bob,

congratulations on your first bunch of finds! Keep on going!

I think that the find on the left mightnot necessarily be a nail. YOu may wish to try and get the rust off it. This may reveal more details. There are some instructions on THunting.com on how to best remove rust from your finds.

The find in the middle could be an old lead musket ball whicht hit something!

The last one is diffuclt to say, maybe a door latch or a part of some sort of machine.

Looking forward to seeing more of your finds.

Best wishes,

Christian

The big rusted piece looks like a side plate off a musket probably a flint lock as the other long piece looks like whats left of the screw that held the flint in place.  Looks like you got a great old site, use your GPS to mark it and dig all signals in that area.
