Great Answer! I wouldn't sell anything that i found either, to many folk want to make a dollar and don't even care of the history of the artifacts. Keep picking em up ❤️
Thanks for the hunt Scott. I get the same thing how much are they worth. Not a whole lot but they are priceless to me. Never sold one .But against my better judgement Have given some away. Probably to many. Oh well. Peace
Great finds sir. I am hoping my fractured leg is healed enough that this spring I can get out to my grandfather's old farm here in Southern Indiana in a former Indian area called Maumee and do some hunting. He used to find them all the time in his field when he would disc which is next to a very small creek just full of rocks and such and surrounded by hunting lands. Deer, turkey, coyotes, everything lives there and I'm assuming the Indians hunted much of that area. I bought the book you recommended. Great book, but a little overwhelming to this old man.. 😂. I have a lot to learn.. Great idea to price those funds. I think it will help your channel I bet because people love to know this stuff and you sir are a jewel and have a great channel . I need to visit W Virginia some day. I'm not that far away, but just never had a reason to go, but seeing your geography makes me want to visit and see the beautiful hills... God speed to you and yours. Tim ..
I hate videos where they always tell to value of everything they found. I feel like this entices people to hunt for the wrong reasons. You did a very good job on this by telling what you would take. The best line in your video is when you said, "I don't sell any of my finds." I am right there with you on this. I sold a nice relic over 30 years ago and have hate that decision ever since. Happy Hunting.
Love this video! I get so annoyed when someone posts an arrowhead they found, and their only question is “how much is it worth”? They’re in the wrong hobby if that’s all they care about, also, rarely does the monetary value even come close to the historical value of these amazing artifacts. You have the best UA-cam channel going Scott, appreciate what you do!
Thanks for another great video! I really enjoy them, my mom passed away Feb 1st of this year and your videos really help take my mind off of things. You have alot of helpful information and make things fun at the same time. Hopefully i can get out and hunt a little some time also. Take care and thank you again.
Great job Scott , a beautiful day for a hunt . I'm glad you , and Rocky done well . I think you may have to have more patience with Rocky . I think his feelings were hurt today .
Pretty cool finds walking the creek beds Scott! Yeah, there’s something about selling Native American artifacts that just doesn’t seem right🤔I also could not or wouldn’t sell anything I discovered either. Just finding it with your own hands & the history of it is priceless! Thanks for sharing another cool video Scott👍
To: c.a.robinson1993 - What about when we get old? It would seem a waste to put them in our casket. Funerals are already too costly. Why rob our future generations of these " stone age treasures. I my opinio , the wrong is on those lowlifes that rob ancient burial sites just to make a dime.
I'm 74 been looking for Indian rocks since I was 11years old don't have many but have never considered selling them doesn't matter what they are worth ✌️
(03:00) In Ohio, those points are referred to as, Mississippian or war points. Not to be confused with Fort Ancient triangular points that are not as long but still triangular and much thicker.
Whenever I'm asked value, I always say I don't care. I hunt for historical purposes, not monetary purposes. It's historical value far exceeds any monetary value
Exactly! People have tried to get me to sell some items. I never sell anything I find, it’s just to valuable to me. I’d give things to people that appreciate them before I’d ever sell them. I figure when I’m gone, they’ll probably be sold for money. Hard to tell. I’ll try and leave them to someone that loves history as much as me.
@Scott...might I add I have never bought a piece in my collection although I've been tempted to ask you if you wanted to sell a few of your pieces lol lol
A friend in Bowling Green Ohio had one of the largest arrowhead in the US!! Wood county was a great place to find after the farmers plowed the fields! A lot of sand in that area but the size of some them was incredible. He died Swahili ago and didn’t keep contact with him throughout the years!! His name was Wes Dolittle! Yep that’s his name. He hunted for the arrowheads back in the 70’s 80’s! I bet they collection was worth north of 50k
Love your videos, Clegg!! Do you ever get disgruntled archaeologists claiming you're doing harm to the archaeological footprint? I absolutely love the knowledge and vibes you share here - I for sure think you're contributing to it rather than taking away from it, by a lot. It's like I'm learning from a friend :) I just have a question to whether the haters ever get to you, and how you deal with them if so. Keep the videos coming though!! Super inspired by your work here
No, archaeologists don’t seem interested in places that have eroded away. I get a lot of youtube trolls, but I have thick skin. Doesn’t bother me a bit anymore
@@Dylan-kx6fc exactly. 99% of artifacts I find have been eroded out of a bank of all time periods. I have found a few pieces sticking out of the bank but rare.
Sad to say it Scott but I had to sell some of mine. My heart will always have cracks from those sales. But they did go to one of Colorado's biggest collector's and Authenticator. Most are kept in his personal collection but he did sell some on his Ebay store. I do get to view what he kept whenever I want. (Want to cry that is). He has become a good friend and has always told me I could buy them back. Now I just wonder how much of my collection will end up in the trash when I pass. Many a artifact is nothing more than just a rock to some people (Like my son in law). Glad to know that my daughter know's enough to understand the love I have for this hobby and some artifacts will be cherished. Time is ticking and we can't take it with us. Great video Scott. Happy hunting Sir and many blessings.
@@cleggsadventures Hopefully that's not for a very long time Scott. This community needs you around for as long as possible.You bring an amazing spark and awesome education with GRAND creativity. Keepin real brother. Thanks.
I’m so glad I never sold any of mine. Money comes and goes but these are unique and it’s hard to put a price on the experience and memories that come from being the first to hold an artifact after being lost for so long.
Have you investigated Powhatan Point..... the location is would be the most logical place for a fort. I looked at it on google maps and it looks artificially flattened. Moundsville, i believe, is more historically significant than people give it credit for. Also important, but to a lesser extent, the ancient flood plains of New martinsville, Paden City, Sistersville, Friendly, and Bens run. They would be PERFECT locations for small pockets of human development. They would be easily defensible and far enough from other inhabitable land, that culture could development unmolested by outsiders. I think these locations were crucible of cultural development and it was washed away by the river. Just some thoughts... Do you know anything about the Dodridgde giants and the solid gold statue found in New Martinsville?
Some of my most precious points i found along the river. Ohio river is an endless treasure chest! I found anything from snyder points to hopewells but ive never walked away empty handed. Im on oxygen now but my goal is to get my health back to walk those banks again. For now im living through you. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences. You have no idea how much i enjoy these videos.
Very interesting 🧐 I’ve no issue with folks who want to attach monetary value to artifacts. Personally it’s an anathema to me . Rocky sure wants to shoot some footage , I’m not entirely sure he should - but gal dernit, his passion is a lil infectious. Oh & Rocky Peggy says hey 👋- she sure is a looker !
Hey Scott! Nice finds. Yeah I ve never sold or bought any either, no way. I've sold other things during hard times but never my artifacts. Just curious, are ya close to the Ohio River on this adventure?
Yeah, most of my finds are near or on the river. This creek empties into the Ohio. I have a couple more good creeks in the back country but most comes from near the river
Great episode ! love your true excitement in finding history, Hey I live in Michigan and I want to make a shaker sled like you use, where can I find that wire mesh at? Amazon has it by the 100' rolls and we only need a 2' x 2' piece ? thanks
Just to think the human being that made that over a thousand years ago lived and died. He had many experiences throughout his life. The land was better and cleaner. Less populated. They did not have to worry about nuclear war or any other modern problem that we have today. Human beings back then were definitely more spiritual and probably happier then we are today. I wish we could go back in time.
Good hunt. I don't sell my stuff either, but have been known to do a little trading among friends I hunt with. All good. Good luck in future hunts my friend 🖒
I was watching one of your videos and seen the big Indian mound we have three big giant Indian mounds where I live at it's called the etowah Indian mounds they have a museum in Bartow county Georgia about 30 years ago I found a rock that is round and it looks like a big old timey marble that is perfectly round found it in a Creek Bank next to where a fire pit was eroding out any idea of what it might be I would never sell any of mine either it sucks oh now I can't go because of cancer but I really like your videos because it reminds me of when me and my buddy used to go we would set up lanterns and sift all night and it would make my wife mad she would tell me to take my arrow heads and my buddy and to stick them what are the sun does not shine but now she keeps my cases all cleaned and shined up with no dust on them keep on finding them so I can keep watching can't go nowhere around here no more because everything is against the law it's sad when you can't even find an arrowhead nomore started finding them when I was about 10 years old with my papa 65 now my Arrowhead days are over with really makes me sad but I keep watching your videos because makes me glad❤
Great channel. Looking at a past video where you were wondering about nutting stones. I believe these people were grinding sticks for fire starter. To be used as fuel for there friction fire bow and drill. Maybe. Fire to them was president as of today.
People ask me all the time if I'll sell any and its a hard NO always. Now i will say I would like to know the value of that 7 3/4" Stanfield we found two videos back!
@cleggsadventures it's got a possible one ding on it but it's the most impressive piece we've found yet In my opinion at least. Give it a look and let me know what ya think! Thanks for the response 👍
A man named "indian wells" originally from paoli indiana finally from s.e. indiana identified a black arrowhead founnd near the fuji tower in s.w. ohio approx.1994 or '95 as a " fort ancient era obsidian" arrowhead. It was strange in that it appeared to be designed in such a way that it would spin as it flew. Would it have any historical value? ...monetary value?
If it’s Obsidian, probably. Had to travel a long way. That’s mostly found in the west. The spinning theory, I don’t think it was designed to do that. Maybe beveled edges, but spinning wouldn’t serve a purpose in hunting.
@@cleggsadventures Thank you for sharing straight info i have lived along the ohio river and laughery creek for around sixty yesrs. I've walked who knows how many miles of "bottoms" . Have seen much much flint, but not much obsidian. My opinion was flint. But i am no expert. Isn't obsidian more "glassy" in appearance when compared to flint ? It may take a couple days to get to where i keep it. When i can, would it be ok if i send a pic? I am not expecting any kind of in depth analysis, i'm just an old guy who loves this stuff wanting to share and learn. Thanks again for your prompt and informed response.
Hello my Friend, loving your informative videos. I'm like you my finds are too valuable to me. I don't have anything anybody would want to buy. Keep hunting my Friend.
Any chance my husband and I could pay you to take us hunting with you? We are fossil hunters ... so we have our own gear. We have never found a arrowhead ... we would love to try to change that! I am pretty sure we live pretty close to you.
Being born and raised along the Ohio river in Kentucky, I never knew all the history that is contained in the shores of the river. I’m on leave this weekend visiting the family in Meade County, Ky so I think Sunday will be spent seeing what I can possibly find. Thanks for showing me what is right under my nose!
Thanks for another great video. In almost 4 years of living out in the sticks here in Michigan, I still haven't found any points. During a hike, I stumbled across a creek that has potential. I might give it a try.
To me all the value is in the adventure and the excitement and the snap shot in time for memories each time I look at my displays. I don't personally do it for monetary gain but each their own I guess
Great Answer! I wouldn't sell anything that i found either, to many folk want to make a dollar and don't even care of the history of the artifacts. Keep picking em up ❤️

I still cannot fathom how many points end up lost or misplaced by the original people that made them.

Much Appreciated! He’s learning
$25-$40 seems way too low….i would keep them too, if I were you.
Yeah, couldn’t get rich hunting points.
Nice plant just sittin rite on top lmfao ive been hunting them since 1965
Yeah, because they never lay in creeks like that. SMH
Is there a way of knowing a reproduction from a true arrowhead?
Sure, there are many signs. You can tell mostly by patina
What? Scott does creeks? Is the river too high? 😂😂
A bit high. I’m all over 👍🤘
one million each

How much is that one worth? $$$$$$$?

Overstreet puts out books detailing what they are worth. The values are increasing due to supply and demand.
Yes, I have this book
@@cleggsadventures They update then all the time taking into consideration the rising prices.
I can’t believe how many you find along that river. In PA it’s like trying to find a needle in thousands of haystacks lol
This is a good location for artifact hunting. I’d say it had a huge population
@@cleggsadventures The Susquehannock were vastly populated. We even have a huge rock out in the middle of the river with petroglyphs all over it.
Can arrowheads just appear after a heavy rain in a creek?
Every time the water goes up and down, it’ll turn the gravel bars over every time. I always go back after a good creek wash, it’s different every time

I don’t think so, he always plays the bad guy
Never sell what I find.

How To Find Arrowheads With Clegg’s Adventures

In some states it is illegal to sell artifacts
I don’t sell anything, nor did I know that
I’ve been watching your videos for a while keep going!
Much Appreciated
I have kayaked the river I live on here in northern IL for going on 30 years. Kishwaukee river. Never found anything. Any ideas why?
I’m not sure of that area. I have several how-to videos that may help.
Ive been looking in stony creek beds around here for years and never found an arrowhead, you walk 20 feet and find 2, why is that?
It all depends on location. This is a great area for artifacts
@@cleggsadventuresIs that why you started collecting, just happen to live in the right area?
@@dodden1 Yeah, I love the history.
Make a video adding some of these points to what they were meant for on shafts!
I’ve done that
Never stop, Clegg!
Right on 👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍

Being born and raised along the Ohio river in Kentucky, I never knew all the history that is contained in the shores of the river.
I’m on leave this weekend visiting the family in Meade County, Ky so I think Sunday will be spent seeing what I can possibly find. Thanks for showing me what is right under my nose!
Much Appreciated! Good luck out there
Naturally perfect. Your ability scares me good brother , good eye . Good show .
Much Appreciated
Can't put a price on the adventure!the river down by Portsmouth is super muddy found my first Nutting stone last week!
Hey, very nice Mike! 👍 yeah, I love getting out there
Nice finds brother! I don't sell my finds either. Gonna just pass them down the family line. 😉
Same here Sam
Sweet 💥💪✌️😁
Much Appreciated
That triangle arrow point may be an un notched Cahokia, if so that's a highly prized point.
I’m in WV. Much Appreciated
Thanks for another great video. In almost 4 years of living out in the sticks here in Michigan, I still haven't found any points. During a hike, I stumbled across a creek that has potential. I might give it a try.
Good luck out there 👍
Thanks!
Very Much Appreciated Kenny! Thank you for that.👍
I have 3 perfect that I have found and will not sell them! Love your knowledge.
Very Nice 👍
I’m from Mn.. been a dream to find one. Would you take me to find one for some $$
A bit far and no time to spare. So sorry
@@cleggsadventures I would travel to you
I was saying that in mn there’s not many places to find them.
@@Filling_tags A lot of people want to come hunt, but with my schedule, it’s always too hard to make plans
I just love your enthusiasm for your hobby which is worth more than any money.....
Much Appreciated
To me all the value is in the adventure and the excitement and the snap shot in time for memories each time I look at my displays. I don't personally do it for monetary gain but each their own I guess
Same
Keep up the good work.
You’re going to find that great one soon!
I can’t wait…….
Much Appreciated! I’m due
I recall how excited my buddy got many years ago when he actually found an ancient hatchet head. I wonder what those sell for?
Depends on type and condition
Clegg thanks for vids they are educational and fun to watch
Much Appreciated
Worth the history it holds! If these things could tell a story we just might wanna listen huh? That sir is priceless in itself.
You got that right.
😂 funny as hell getting on your camera man! Great content my friend
Much Appreciated Matt
