    Don't know what it is but Indian Head pennies seem to be one of everyones favorite. Me too !!! Check the reverse of the 1909 wheat. At the bottom it may have the initials VDB, initials of the artist. They are usually faint, so don't rub too much. Worth more than with no initials. Looks like...

    Old Chimney finds

    The knob you found is usually referred to as a Bennington knob. Bennington pottery was a brown drippy glass, from Bennington, VT. Hopefully more silver to come your way. HH Donna(NJ)
