I am not sure what the first two objects are.

The third appears to be half of a mold for lead musket balls - perhaps a Napoleonic War era item.

The last item appears to be a late Roman era T-form belt plate but it is hard to be sure from the current condition.

I thought those t-form belt mounts were 1-2nd century, but they're late roman?

You are correct, sorry.  Late 2nd to mid-3rd century.
