probable trench art from ww1 a great hide out  shame there where no sovs in a box or bullet .
great work locating them .
is the ring a shilling ring or 2 shilling ring people must have worked real hard to make the rings like that.

The spoon looks like a homemade caddy spoon made from coins.
Looks like a caddy spoon we used to have when i was a lad.
