Wow, nice collection. I would never sell though. What part of Ms? North, south??

How did you acquire them? Did they come with a story about the recovery? How much do you value them? I value all the artifacts I found as priceless and will never sell them.

I was offered then on a trade,he said he found them on the Ill. side of the mississippi fiver.
Hotzone I was wondering what they where worth,he said he walked about 4 hrs per piece.

While it sounds like you have made your mind up, before you do walk his walk until you find an arrowhead to add to them. If you still feel that way try an online auction. Sell one at a time to get most money!

I see a few items that depending on condition, material, age, etc., could fetch several hundred dollars (each). Some appear to be "run-of-the-mill" types worth anywhere from $5 each and up. Provenance is important and would have possibly increased the value, e.g. - markings or labels for each point, blade, scraper or otherwise detailing the general area in which it was found. For obvious reasons, you wouldn't want it to pinpoint the location though. Maybe just the county where it was found and the date.

I would suggest that you take a few to the resident archaeologist for the ranger district (US Forest Service), in the area of the state that you live. The one in Forest, MS specializes in ancient Native American artifacts...FYI. Great collection!!
