Again same foundation, I appologize for all the posts, but I'm extremely curious about these items... Coins found in the area of these items ranged from 1802 to 1882....
 
Looks like a musketball with the casting sprue still intact. (a casting sprue is the remains of excess lead that was poured into the bullet mold). The lower one is probably a ball if it's lead, or grapeshot if it's iron.
