Arrowheads weren’t just tools—they were often traded like money. Tribes valued them for their usefulness and skillful craftsmanship, making them a form of early currency in Native American trade long before coins came along.
Offered here is a visually striking collection of five smaller Native American projectile points crafted from a variety of lithic materials, including:
- Milky Quartz
- Black Obsidian
- Chert / Flint
- Translucent Quartz / Chalcedony
These points display classic bifacial flaking, sharp conchoidal fracture patterns, and well-defined notched or expanding bases. The material diversity makes this grouping especially appealing for collectors who appreciate the geological as well as historical dimension of lithic artifacts.
Highlights:
- Strong flake scar patterns on all pieces
- Attractive contrast between white quartz and glossy black obsidian
- Nicely formed notches and bases
- Excellent display variety
The central black point appears to be obsidian, exhibiting the glossy volcanic glass texture and razor-sharp flaking typical of Western U.S. material. The lighter pieces appear to be quartz or chalcedony, common in Eastern and Midwestern finds.
Likely Archaic to Woodland period styles (regional attribution would depend on documented find location).
Additional photos and measurements available upon request.
