The A rtifact V ault has been opened, welcome to our auction ! Here we have a Lance Type that came in at the end of the Paleo era. Originally called Long points, they were renamed Angostura during excavations at the type site, a lake by the same name in South Dakota. This a very well made example that was found in Howard Co. Mo. in a creek in 2008. Name of finder on the Motley COA dated 07-24-08. Measuring 3 7/8" x 1 3/16" it has some really OUTSTANDING FLAKING and the material is about as cool a piece of Burlington as you will ever see. Loaded with fossils, some of which are crystallized, it was the flaking that drew me to this BEAUTY. Flaked to a light median ridge, it is thin and very well made with absolutely NO DAMAGE . There is 1 fossil that is extremely hard, but the ancient knapper showed his skill by working the material to near perfection, save for 2 small spots that just would not come off (due to that fossil). I purchased this in person at Rainbow Traders Auction back in December of 2008. I had gone to that auction for a cpl of specific pieces and this was not 1 of them. But as it was being auctioned, I just could NOT get past the FLAKING! FANTASTIC PIECE of Early American Pre-History. Please enlarge the pictures and have a look, I don't think you will be disappointed with this piece. Can't start this 1 low, I must protect the investment, but it IS starting below my cost. Use your tax refund for a GOOD purpose ;-) This 1 will look great in any collection! Thanks for your continued support of our auctions. I have added a good number of pictures but should you require more, just let me know and I will be glad to oblige. ALWAYS 100% GUARANTEED AUTHENTIC, WITH A NO QUESTIONS ASKED RETURN POLICY. !

PLEASE WAIT FOR THE INVOICE FROM ME, NOT THE EBAY INVOICE SENT AUTOMATICALLY AT THE END OF THE AUCTION ! Buy several AUTHENTIC ARTIFACTS and save big on shipping! Check back often, as I will be adding more pieces as time goes by. I have decided to concentrate my collection to a more defined area and will be listing many items over the next few months, including arrowheads, spears and knives from the Paleo, Archaic, Woodland and Mississippian time frames, with many different typologies represented. I will also offer several pieces of pottery and hard stone. There will be several axes and discoidals, and a few pcs of slate. The items offered are from varying locations and all were collected with the intent of building a collection. None were acquired with the idea of reselling them, and are from what I consider to be my personal collection. I never bought a piece that I didn't like! As my tastes have changed, I now offer these items back to fellow collectors for their enjoyment. Be sure to add me to your FAVORITE SELLERS list, as there will be some awesome pieces for sale.
