Do you know what these are from?!

We excavated these from a cave used in 1922 by IRA hiding out during the Civil War

There must be someone out there who recognises these? Please share widely and help us solve the mystery!

While researching the Civil War you occasionally come across incidents that were certainly 'out of the ordinary' such as in late March 1922 when while fising in the Slaney near Enniscorthy a Mr. Tim Butler caught a grenade!
