It took 18 years: Clovis today (Updated Pic)

[lostlake88]

Dusty field with foot prints everywhere, an arrowhead hunters nightmare senario. Right?? Well this was the condition today. I was tired, wanted to go home then I saw a flint chip lodged in the ground, I thought 'what the heck I'll pick it up'. The earth moved above it, so I just flip it out and there it was a 3 7/16" Carter Cave Clovis arrowhead. I couldn't believe my eyes, and neither could my buddy Chuck who was right there when this unfolded. There still out there! HH

I also remeber a clear quartz point back a few years ago but they don't make the banner that often.

I have to admit I know nearly nothing about Indian artifacts so I popped the name Carter Cave Clovis into Google and here is an auction that came up: http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/2458528 The starting bid was $1000 and the estimated value was $3,500 to $4,500. Granted this one is a little smaller but that is still impressive.

Congrats on a great find and for making the banner.
