Had been cleaning out house, and came across these items. Looking to see if anyone has any knowledge on the makes/items, and if they might be worth something more than just having them melted per say. If they're valuable or worth anyhting, will be willing to sell them as well.

One is the pitkin marking,  (will add pictures soon as I can)

WM rogers with a shield on one side and an eagle on the other, which I am told is marked WM. ROGERS (Hartford, CT, ca 1822-1843)

Another looks like EB, or BB?

Another has 4 symbols in a colum. Believe one is a lion, one is a profile of a femal figure, and a shield I remember correctly.

 

Sorry I don't have pictures, they are not with me at the moment.
