Just a few more things

Here are a few more pics of some of the things I have found.
First set of pics is a whoknowswhat??? "Broadhead & Co, Sheffield" is the writing on the back.
Anyone have a clue as to what it may be?
Edited to add--Someone over on the other site said this is more than likely a spoon handle. Possibly pewter 18th/19th century.
Here is my Pike pendant. This thing is really heavy for it's size and is relatively new. I thought it was pretty cool.
And here is the last pic of the day. It appears to be a stamp of some sort. The only word that I can make out is the very last word and that is Powder. The pic isn't the greatest--I originally took the pic and realized that I had the stamp upside down. I rotated it hoping that it may help. I can't seem to get that last bit of gunk on the stamp off to identify what writing is there.
Thanks for looking.

I agree, though I tend to think more toward the latter timeframe, i.e. 19th century.
Love that fishy pendant.
The last item is tantalizing- try and make out some more of the inscription!
I couldn't help fiddling with the image a bit. This is as close to readability that I could get it.
Looks to me like the last row could be "baking powder", middle row "????? powder", top row "(?)?URTMANN" ?
Cool finds!
