The aluminum band with number is a bird trackjng tag; the pieces of wheel could be part of a windmill. Ornithologists have banded tens of thousands of shorebirds since the mid 1990's. The vast majority of these birds are red knots, semipalmated sandpipers, ruddy turnstones, and sanderlings, to study migration and nesting habits
The long pointy thing is a fence post. It had rusted away at ground level. The roundish fancy is a cast iron stove top grate. You guessed that one. Nice finds. The glass fuse is old old electric fence conductor. After glass they made ceramic conductors.
I thought it was a fencepost too, when I fist found the upper portion in the dirt. The big question is, why would they bury it with the pointy side facing up? Thank you for your comment.
@@2SistersMetalDetecting When installing a fence post the points are down to slice through the dirt/ rocks when pounding it down. Over time falling trees, tractors, and animals bend the fence post. Often times when removing old posts the bottom snaps right off- too much effort to dig it out so farmers/people leave them. Likely there are more of them in a long ago removed fenceline.

The tag was about 4” long. Do you know what kind of big it would have been used for?

The item round with hole is an old shoe horn

Could be a water rasp used to get water off horses
That is an interesting guess. Thank you for commenting.
Looks like part of a wagon wheel
I think you might be right! Thanks for your comment!
