WTB to Trade for a Clovis point

I think the bad news news is you really never know if they are real! They make the repos so good it takes a real expert to give you and evaluation!
 
I have seen some very nice ones that were found near the base of the Sangre De Cristo near Cottonwood Creek where it flows out into the Baca Grande Ranch on the north side of the Great Sand Dunes, You can tell by the terrain that the native hunters sat there on high ground watching the drainages for game and those spots turn up some nice points. Another place like that up in Poncha Pass, supposedly lots of real nice hunting points found in that area too
 
The only way to get a real one is to find it yourself, I have been hunting artifacts for about 14 years now and no such luck , but you always see countless numbers of them at the shows (Collinsville, lake of the ozarks , ect. So in my opinion this can only mean one thing -FAKE-
 
There is a 70 year old Archeologist that lives 2 miles from me that I trust to authenticate one if I find one to buy. Meanwhile I will keep looking and hoping. I have a friend that has a real one that I have been trying to trade him out of for years. I feel him at least thinking about after 20 years..Ha!
 
Stick with the people you know and trust, you might get lucky , I also have a couple friends that have found clovis points , and I know they'll never give them up, but we are hunters with all personal finds only in our ccollections. No buying. No selling. Nothing against it they just mean more that way
A couple years ago I found an eight inch nebo hill with no resharpening , beautiful point, this is my clovis, but of course I'll keep looking, after all I'm in adams co il, kinda a jackpot area.
Good luck, remember if it's to good to be true it probably isn't

I am working on a trade for one with a guy I know. I hope the deal goes through.
