heads, drills, a couple of heartbreakers, a killer AX, and a very nice Dalton

Would love to know the value on the AX
Most of this stuff was found in Saline and Pope Counties, IL.

I would pay 50 bucks for the axe.

Killer pieces, man. That Dove in the first pic is a shame. That would have been a dandy. I really like the long stemmed Adena Point right beside it.

As for the Axe, it's hard to say. Axes are funny when it comes to pricing. I've seen Axes like yours go for big money at auctions, like $200+ and then I've seen them go really cheap, like $35 to $50 at auctions. I guess it just depends on who is bidding and how badly they want them.

As an example I'll show you 4 Axes I bought at an auction in Marion county Ohio a few years back. The one on the bottom left hand side I paid $37.50 for. The other 3, believe it or not, I got in a box that had a lot of broken Stone Tools for $27.50 for the entire box. I don't know if people just didn't realize they were in there or if just thought they were broken.

In the last picture the Axe right in the front I got at the Ripley Artifact Show 2 years ago for $45. So they can be obtained rather reasonably if you try.
