I will leave The Doc give you precise id's  - I take it you know the top two are a Roman Radiate Coin and what looks like a Roman Snake buckle

The bottom coin looks Like a Silver Edward ii hammered penny, as I said The Doc will tell you what they are for certain.

The S-shaped belt hook is probably mid 16th to early 17th century. Like Rob said, the Roman coin is a radiate, probably barbarous. The full hammered coin is probably Henry VII, York mint, Spink 2223.
