The item above the large cent is actually a room number door plaque from an old hotel that use to be in the town where I live... it was room #9...Welcome to the hobby! Is that a ladies makeup compact above the silver dimes? If so have you managed to open it to see what is inside? Might be a coin or two inside if you are lucky. Oh and above the large cent looks like that might be a old watch fob, does it have any writing on it? Looks like you are doing fine! Happy hunts CARM.
