I didn’t just find these today. But I enjoy looking for these this time of year. Especially after a heavy rain.

I did find this old sign the other day fishing by the river. Pretty cool. I wonder how old it is.

A friend of mine in his 90’s He started looking for arrow heads back in the 1940’s. He just told me it was an Indian pipe and he said he’s found several over the years he gave this one to me. He has the largest collection of artifacts I’ve ever seen.

That’s a nice big point too, you find that trilobite? Is it pyritized if I spelled that right. Signs pretty cool too don’t know a lot about them but I get the sense it could be around 100yrs or so

That pipe is very nice. It looks like a classic Hopewell pipe. What state did your friend collect in?

He told me he collected artifacts in many different states. He drew himself a map of all the areas he found stuff. Which I thought was a pretty cool idea. His basement was filled with boxes and buckets of artifacts some of his better stuff he kept in frames hung on the wall. His house looked like a museum. But he collected for many years. Truly an amazing man to talk to.

I know a few with collections so big it takes up a couple of rooms to display them. I’m not in that category

Did he say he found everything or did he purchase artifacts too?

I know he did a lot of arrow head hunting when he was younger. And enjoyed showing his collection to others. And shared all of his knowledge with whom ever asked. Just a good guy. I never thought to ask him if he bought artifacts.
