Good to see ya posting. Sorry about your Dad. The best point I ever found was also found 20 years to the day of my Fathers death. Funny how life will send a little sunshine when we need it. Congratulations on your banner.
Artifacts belong with Relics up on top.

Be careful with that point, there appears to be a hairline fracture line near the tip of the point. :icon_scratch:

It's absolutely flawless and there are a lot of emotions tied up with that one as I found it on the last day my father was on this Earth

Sorry to hear that GatorBoy.

I think things happen for a reason , Why? IDK

Now every time you look or think of the 'point' You will remember your Dad & Vice Versa.

I'm surprised it made it through all those years 'unbroken' esp ,given FL's population.
God Bless You & Yours.
