Howdy All, I've been collecting relics since i was 10 years old and am now 66. I have several hundred whole points, lots of hardstone, a few pipes, one nice Ohio pot, boatstone, a few drilled wolf? teeth, bone beads, and on and on. I'm thinking of selling my collection and just wondering what would be the best way? Most of the relics were found by my wife and me in the south-eastern US along with a couple of local private collections that i bought years ago. For many years, I visited local schools, museums, Boy Scouts and festivals showing relics, explaining their uses and giving away pottery shards & relics to kids. I have a couple of 5 gallon buckets of brokes and limited the collection to only whole or very nearly whole pieces. I know the difference between real relics and leverites although i have brought buckets full of leverites home just because i liked them. Leverites are not considered "collection pieces". They are just cool {at the moment" rocks and i like cool rocks. Here are a few pictures of some of my riker cases. Sorry for the picture quality. It is too nasty outside to take pictures today so these are quickies taken in a too dark log house. If i do decide to sell, it will be sold as the whole collection, not in pieces. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
