The value of Indian head and buffalo nickels from 1913 to 1938 can vary significantly based on their condition and rarity. Common Indian head nickels are generally valued between $1 to $5, while rare dates or those in excellent condition can be worth much more. Buffalo nickels also range from $1 to several hundred dollars, depending on their mint mark, year, and condition. A knife set from that era may have its own collectible value, but it would depend on the brand, condition, and collector interest.
Many Indian head nickels were struck with a raised date that wore off quickly. Without the date it's almost impossible to tell what year the coin was minted so these are classed as culls that sell for 15-20 cents as fillers or so-called "type coins".
Any series of coins dated from 1900 to 1999 are included in a 20th Century type set, even if they began before the year 1900 such as Indian Head cents, Liberty Head nickels and the Barber coins.

Yes, many millions. Indian head nickels had a design flaw that allowed the date to wear off quickly. Unfortunately dateless nickels are considered to be "culls" and sell for only ten to twenty cents as curios. Only a small number of buffalo nickels were ever struck with 3 legs, and all are the result of minting errors.
