Let's see some points you've found
Hillbilly:
Auggie, glad to know i wasn't the only one. ;D BBs and .22 short hollow points are pretty rough on the little guys, too. :)
mullet:
Shannon, That's a nice Bolen bevel. If I can get over to my buddy Rick's house I'll take some pictures of some real killer ,expensive points. They are mostly Agatized Coral found down here. Each case is probally worth about $30 grand a piece. Hillbilly's seen them ,I think.
Hillbilly:
Yeah, I saw Rick's cases at the Clinch River knapin a couple years ago. Absolute jaw droppers.
Otoe Bow:
Well I looked in all the places I thought I'd kept my childhood mementos for the few points (thinking back and knowing what little I now know, they were probably preforms) but I can't seem to find them. I hope they didn't go the way of many a kid's baseball card collections left in the attic. :(
Nice collections guys. Very educational too.
I am going to have to make another trip to the Sam Noble Museum of Natural History at the University of Oklahoma. It's got a lot of nice points on display. Mainly those found in and around Oklahoma. Lots of Clovis points if I remember correctly. Does that sound about right, geographically?

FlintWalker:
Thanks Eddie. I didn't know I had a bolan bevel ??? Which one you talkin about?
About the most expensive point I ever seen was a 7" cumberland. It was at a show in Gallatin, Tn. The guy who had it turned down $20,000 for it that day, TWICE!!! I say that's where two fools met! Of course my wife thinks i'm a fool. I turned down $350 for the Lost Lake and $500 for the serrated Dove Tail. She say's if anything ever happens to me, she's selling them "rocks".
