I need some funds to buy my family some presents this year. I'll help you by getting you some Christmas gifts, and you'll help me by buying them!

$70

Field damaged Buck creek arrowhead. Very nice! This artifact is a Western Kentucky find, and very thin with serrations. Great price for an artifact of this nature, even in broke condition. Measures over 2 inches long.

$15

Black Glass ale bottle. Thick, heavy glass, and black as can be. The letters G K are on the bottom.

$10

Pottsville Pennsylvania beer bottle. Nice bottle, with a few scratches and a chip off of the lip, but a bargain for a hard to find location.

$30

Paleo Clovis Ovoid knife. Beautiful flint, found on a Paleo site.




I'll add more later.

Paypal and check work good. I also have a Rev. War 8 pounder british cannonball that was brought to camp Nelson in Kentucky as a souvenir, more bottles, and maybe some flintknapped arrowheads. I'll get more pictures up in the afternoon tomorrow.

Rusty, nice looking relics. Do you know the History of the black glass bottle, where it was found, etc?

It was an Attic find, here in Kentucky, near Morehead. I'm not 100% sure of the age of it, but it's between 1870-1900.

Revolutionary war era 8 pounder solid shot, for a British Gun. This was found inside a home basement near Camp Nelson in Kentucky. The story behind it is, an antiques dealer was knocking on doors looking for things to buy, and he was in this old mans basement when he found this. The old man said that this ball was probably from the camp. Doubtful, but it is a neat piece of ordnance. I'm only asking what I paid for it, $85.

I also have a 7x6x2/1 1/2 approx. piece of Minnesota pipestone for pipe carving, beads etc. I only took one piece off of it, but I can't keep it because I do not have a jig saw, and hack sawing it is too time consuming. Picture will be posted if y'all are interested in it.

I forget if this is called a CDV or what, but here is a nice photo of an unidentified Michigan man. It is about the size of a baseball card. There are two stamps on the back of the photo, dated March, 1866. It is thought that this man was a CW veteran before the photo was taken. $20 or best offer.
