These items came off a CW camp site and I'm not exactly sure what they might be. I believe the item to the right is a tompion? Any info? Thanks
 
The item on the right looks to be a tompion. Not sure on the rest.

The piece on the right is a tompion.
Is the piece on the right pewter?
I hunt in Missouri and the camps I have hunted are full of what is in the middle. You get excited when you see the green in the earth, but the excitement leaves pretty quick when you pull it out.

If memory serves me correct, I do believe the original word was Tampion. Which literally means "to plug a hole." Somehow during modern times, people went to saying Tompion. Yours probably came from the Enfield rifle and is missing the cork "stopper." Nice finds, David @ Dixie
 
The center piece looks to be a liner for a large pocket knife.......Aaron
