Mail Box Finds Its good to have friends

[rock]

I got this box in the mail yesterday. All I asked for was a reproduction to make a necklace with and instead I got enough for a frame. Its good to have friends and I just want to say Thank You!
Its up to the sender as to if they want it to be known as to who was so generous to send all of these. rock

Very generous indeed. Is the piece in your hand the real deal?

Rock is a very big hearted and humble person, he is always on this site and is always kind with his comments and he hunts hard for his finds. To answer your question yes it is real, it was found just off the Sabine river between Tx. and La. by myself some years ago, it is an Angustura. The bead is a fish vert. bone bead from E. Central La., the trade pipe came from a privy dig I dug here in SW Ms. and the pottery is local stuff. The point with the hole is a reproduction made by myself. It was a honor for me to help him grow his collection and 1 day he will have an item on the Banner, I can tell it from how he hunts.!!!!!!!!!!!

I have to get the piece that attaches it to the chain. I have a gold over layed necklace I want to attach it to. Wife bought it for me years ago she thought it was real. We just found out recently its not.

I like the point cause it shows me how to tell if its ground or not. I have none that are ground I know now.

Good stuff ... Monster was it hard to drill the hole or not too bad with the rite equipment?

It's not hard just use a diamond bit and drill in water to keep the bit cool. Also that point is super thin so that helps.
