Well, it appears that you have “de-nutted” your sewing machine. It may never be the same again.
On the other hand, one of the nuts could be the jam nut off of the bolt that your presser bar lift lever pivots on. The other could be a “spare part” that someone added to your machine through the slot in the face plate where the take-up lever goes up and down. See if it will fit through the slot. I found a 1942 penny in my Singer 115 when I first opened it up to oil it. Of course, I put it back in there when I was done, and it’s still in there (I don’t mess with karma).
