    Make sure you label those and let your heirs know the sentimental and monetary value of each piece. In our local relic/archeology club since the 70's horror stories abound with families totally unaware of the treasures they inherited.

      Near Hannibal Missouri a lifetime arrowhead hunter would also pay 2 cents a piece for complete arrows to the depression era kids. Supposedly a wooden barrel full that simply vanished.

      Ever find a cache?my husband an his brother hunted hours one day,and didn't do well,I found an over turned tree,an in the roots a perfect Benton,,we decided to leave,a light in the middle of the road,(this was a nursery in tenn) blinded us,the sun was reflecting off of this object,my brother in law stopped immediately ,my husband an brother in law,darted out of truck,I was in middle, there layed a large quartz worked stone, which had reflected the sun,an around this the most perfect, unbroken lost lake,piece I ever seen,with a dovetail,and same period pine tree points,I have the whole lot and will never sell,what is most fascinating is we had only drove about twenty feet from where we parked...

    Your videos amaze me! I live in N. GA and used to hunt these in an uncle's garden every year when he tilled it up. He owned about 100 acres beside a very big creek but only plowed about 10 acres. We found so much out there but not much that were compete. He found a lot, but he was there 24/7. I no longer have access to that property, but I still look around that creek but have never found as much as a chip. Any ideas? I kind of follow your creek walking, but never find anything. That particular creek is so big and deep that it would be hard. Plus digging in the banks would be trespassing. I love this kind of stuff and would like to get my children into it

      @Theditchwalker I live in Minnesota near white bear. Some native history around the lake. But I find mostly hard stone artifacts and sherds.
