I'm still shaking from the discovery of a lifetime. Earlier today I unearthed this beauty from an old site I've hunted before. I was so lucky I didn't damage this on the recovery, and the true value will not be destroyed. Please hold off on banner votes, as I have no need for that Just know some day, you too can find such a rare historical item from our ancestors.

I've been trying to locate the value of this, but it's so rare It may not even be in any books.

Those are super valuable I suggest you hide it well. No one would ever suspect if you pounded it into your wall

Go back and hit that site hard. You may find one still embedded in a piece of wood!

Be very careful of who you tell about this. It might be protected under the antiquities laws.

That ranks slightly above finding 3 strand barbed wire with a 4 point barb ...
