Newnan Heartbreaker
« on: July 09, 2016, 01:31:04 pm »
I picked up this Classic Newnan point at the Flea Market this morning along with another Draw Knife, all for $20. Just wanted to show everybody a used to be $2 grand point if the ear was intact. It is heat treated, gem quality, translucent coral. As is it is still in the $200 range

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Maybe to fix it , you could end up "breaking" (?)  the other ear to make it symmetrical 😊

Isaiah, to find one whole, without any chips is a once in a lifetime deal unless you have a lot of cash and buy them.A Newnan made from rock of this quality and perfect is a work of prehistoric rock. They are from the Stemmed Archaic period. That is why even broken it is still worth what some points from other states are, whole.

You're suggesting this is an old artifact?

I need to come collect some coral, I loved that bit I had. Cool buy!
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.

LM, yea, She had it in a jewelry box with some nicknacks. I see broken points every week there but very few I'll reach for.
