The moneyer of the cut half is NICOLE but I'm afraid I don't know the class or where it was made.
Could the "pendant" be a bronze Roman coin that has been made into one?.
You would still be happy to find them though so well done. [81/]
Remember, there is no 'X' marks the spot!
Not finding anything is not for the want of trying! [:)

Hi Tang,
The pendant type thing is possibly the remains of a hooked tag. Some similar examples on PAS ranging in date from the 1500s.

Certainly look very similar, and i have found a few dress hooks there before.
Thankyou for the info Ruth πŸ˜πŸ‘
