Very thinly made with nice patina and shows lots of use wear.
This is a very nice piece of Alaskan history. It was purchased as part of a collection in the mid 60’s. It appears to have some glue residue in the crack at the top to support it from cracking further. (See photos)
This one has a bit of a curve to it.
Eskimo-‘Yupik and Inupiat’ harpoon toggle in very intact condition.
Either used as a polishing stone or a game stone it shows great wear from whatever.
This copper artifact was purchased as part of a collection from Ohio in the 1960’s. It has a great patina that really shows it’s age.
My father purchased a bag of these at a relic show in Indianapolis in the mid 1960’s. We were told by the seller that they had come from Georgia. They do appear to be old and authentic but i don’t have any proof about the Georgia story.
Here is an example of an ancient unfinished project. I am sure it was on his ‘honey-do’ list. Finely pecked into shape but only started drilling the hole. It had a lot of potential. If it could only tell the story as to why it didn’t get finished. This is a great study piece.
