Hiya Kane, not sure about the top item but the centre piece is almost certainly a Roman Brooch fragment.

Does it still have the remains of the spring inside it? The bottom item may be a Button! looks intersesting whatever it is.

Well done

Wel done. Top one may be a coat hook. I agree 2nd one Roman brooch, bottom looks like a military button.
