I guess I have to ask, my daughter just ask me if it's worth anything. This is a Native American Copper Culture knife/dagger 4" long 1"wide and is 4000 to 7000 years old.

You should take that to an expert, because if it truly is 4000 to 7000 years old, it's something special.

I did, pictures were sent the Milwaukee museum and they replied back as what they thought it was. Took it to the Sheboygan historical society and they took pictures of it and they also gave me there thoughts on it that confirmed the date. It was an interesting month of discovery.....

Well, it's definitely worth something, being that old!

Only about $50 from what I have been told. Much more valuable because of its history!!!

It's now displayed on my wall....

From what was called "Old Copper Culture" in eastern Wisconsin. 6000 - 3000 BP. Yours is on the older side of that.
