Found this at a new permission. Most items I'm finding so far are dating from mid to late 60's. I'm not sure what the material is, as it has a greenish patina in spots, but underneath it looks silverish. Anyway, it's slightly bigger than a nickel, has a rectangular hole on one end and a longish section that got folded over. It's a fairly thin metal, the outer edges seem to be shaped like a flower and the silvery marks on the surface look like a flower petal design. Anyone have any ideas what this is?

Some kind of fob?
Yeah, maybe a key fob. I'm trying to get an idea for the date. The property predates the 1920's but the oldest thing I've found after one 4 hour hunt is a 1964 Memorial. It still has an outhouse on the property! It's very trashy but I hope to eventually start finding some older items. Any ideas on what the material could be? The green patina suggests copper/brass I guess, but the silver color underneath I have no idea; I know next to nothing about metals. Was thinking maybe it's part nickel or something.
