Default Couple more doo-hickers and thing-a-ma-bobs

Anyoen got any idea about these? The first is a large (6") plate-like object with what I believe is some sort of Order of the Elks indicia...

The second is some sort of embellishment (military hat?) - eagle on top of a ship's wheel... eagle is silver... it has a screw-like dilly-ma-bob on the back...

The eagle looks really nice. Can't tell what that is on the shield.. my eyes must be going bad..LOL. Could be Coast Guard?
Maybe Pappy or one of our naval vets can shed some light.
