Hi Y'all
I have some heads and misc stuff in storage that I would like to have authenticated and appraised, but I don't know how to go about it.
I put everything in storage after I had a stroke, thinking I never would get to go again, but am now planning on my first hunt.
Now I am medically retired, and have a lot of time on my hands and hunting is good exercise. MD'ing is my other hobby, and I have been doing both a long time.

Well how about a public welcome to artifacts Tonkdog. Life is strange sometimes but it looks as if its given you the chance to enjoy you hobbys. Good luck selling your collection.
Happy future hunts

I know there are some people in the east who appraise artifact collections but I'm not sure about your area? Post some pics if you can, you may get some ballpark figures from the folks around here. Good to hear you're back out and hunting.

Hey Y'all
You have been a great source of knowledge and input/ things I can try, I will post some pics here, but please be patient cause everything I own is in Missouri in storage. I am making plans, tentative, to get them this weekend. I will need some help and am trying to get my nephew to help.
I'm thinking about sending some to Caddo Co. in Ark for authentication. All are from Missouri, except this really cool colored pendant I found with human teeth in northern Ill in a cave. I have to add that I sold my collection once when I was young and stupid, and without the papers, I got ripped off, not knowing the value. Luckily, I kept the best stuff, and thats what I want to have authenticated.
