219 looks like the male portion of one of those snap fasteners for children's clothing.

220 looks like a semi wadcutter pistol bullet. Somewhat unusual nose.
223 - A "pointing" device used for the cement / mortar between bricks, etc. Possibly used by today's brickface and stucco folks to create false bricks, etc.

219 is easy -- it's the top of a dry cell battery. Hard to tell the size, but I'd guess a AA. 213 looks like some kind of mollusk shell.
215 looks like a pressure relief valve from a steam radiator.
217 looks like some kind of flaring tool, or maybe a grommet setter.218 peels grapes
223 is a block line holder. They are stuck in the joints of cinder block to hold the line.
Isn't it time to tell us what the fish bone thing is ? #213
Where do you find all this stuff? They must have some cool swap meets there or you work in a museum.
218) Tool for working on escape wheel in a watch or clock. 219) Battery terminal.
220) Cast bullet -- perhaps Minnie ball. It has been weathering for quite a while, based on the color.
221) Detent for some sort of ratchet?222) Tool for expanding something like perhaps a snap ring?
223) Tool for pointing mortar joints? The notches perhaps for some measurement associated with the task?Now -- to see what others have already answered.
Enjoy, DoN.

218. Nice looking, well built. Only thing I can think of is some form of comparator or thickness gauge. 219. Top of a D, C, or AA battery.220. If 3/4" long, probably a maxi or mini ball, .45 or .50 cal. No rifling or distortion so probably unfired.

222 is a pair of pliers for opening and closing lamp chain.

223 is a brick spacer and pointing tool. 220 is a lead bullet slug. 219 may be an extruded snap for clothing. 218 is a pair of cuffs for a machinist who lost a hand when it was caught in his lathe OR a woodworker's go/nogo gauge with cutter to make it fit, perhaps for chair spindles.

Yes, AA is correct.
Not a shell but you're in the right ballpark.
Nope
Neither of these
This one isn't part of a snap fastener.
Both of these are correct.
Yes, it's a bullet but I'm not sure what particular type of weapon it's for.
Yes
Correct
Bullet is correct, not sure if it's a minnie ball.
Nope
Yes, but not for snap rings, but I suppose you could use it for that.
I don't think this is correct.
Nope
Yes, AA type
It's a bullet but I'm not sure what type, calling it a maxi or mini "ball" seems like an odd name for it.
