So someone from the AACA recommended I try posting this over here. I hope someone can help me out.

I have a couple of people interested in a portion of my collection that I'm selling to pay some bills. The problem is, though, I have no idea how much to ask for it. Anyone have an opinion on what I should ask for the collection as a whole? Thanks in advance! Oh, and feel free to make an offer on any/all pieces also if you're so inclined.

Some nice pieces in there. What county of Ky. were they found in? Btw, welcome to tnet.
 

Yes. Welcome to t-net. Nice looking items. Hope you get some good offers.
 

Are they all personal finds? I know it's much harder to part with personal finds and most people usually want a lot more money for them than ones they bought. You have some very nice pieces that would bring a pretty penny if sold individually, but I'd say together probably around 2 or 3 thousand dollars.
 

Thanks everyone! They're from various places around Kentucky including Henry, Trigg, and Ohio counties. Most of them are personal finds. You're right, I feel like every broken piece I find is worth thousands but of course that's not the case. Hence the reason I'm seeking outside help for an estimate. Thanks for the help thus far!
 

I forgot to mention the pipe was part of a cache. Here's a pic of the whole cache together. Note the gorget is broken on one end and the small point is broken at the base. Still taking offers on everything btw! And thanks again for everyone's help. You guys have been great!

It certainly is. "Cache" might be a bit of a jump. They were all in a small pit (about 30cm at its widest) and about 20cm deep. Nothing else in the pit except a few small flakes and a couple of very small sherds which I attributed to just being mixed in with the fill dirt.

Anyone want to hazard a guess at the point types? I'm very bad at typing lithics.
 

Alright guys I'm adding a few more to the mix. No set price so please feel free to make offers on any of them.

Got any sonora flint in that group of points? I'd like to see a close up of the two lostlakes, and the two paleo auriculate pieces if you don't mind, assuming they're still available. What type of material is the large stemmed knife piece made of? The one that's part of the cache.
