    Made an investment in Artifacts from an OH Collector

    I invested in these pieces from an OH collector. If someone would be able to maybe give me a value on the group it would be greatly appreciated. An investment for my Grandson. All personal finds from the field will also be his...ha!, already are!

    EDITED BECAUSE MY CHOICE OF WORDING WAS MISLEADING.

    I'm no expert, and it's hard to tell from the picture, but those don't look too good to me. Not sure if that 4th one is found in Ohio. Good luck though.

    I hate to say it but my intial impression is the same, they look off. It is hard to tell from a picture though. Perhaps some better pics of the points (showing flaking, close-up) and some pics of the pendents focusing on the holes would tell us more.

    I am no expert either but that doesnt match Ohio material from what I have personally collected in the field

    I may have been misleading without intent. When I said an OH collector, I meant the fella was from OH. He inherited this as part of a collection and was unaware of where the pieces were found. I apologize for any misunderstanding. I did not pay TOO much for them. Anyway...I will post photos of the holes and the pieces separately after my camera charges. I have the option to return them. Thank you for your opinions.

    I'd value that group between $2500-$3000.

    Bargain beware. If I were in your position I would send them to http://www.bennettauthentications.com/

    If you didn't pay "TOO much" then you've either gotten the deal of the century or gotten hoodwinked. Since your only question was regarding value I'll end my opinions there.

    Did you buy them with an authenticity guarantee ?

    I only asked value because I was convinced they were authentic. I am in the bad habit of being a little too naive. I would certainly welcome all comments...good or bad. I have some pictures of the holes. What is it I'm looking for?
