So last weekend I went out with a friend to some state land that used to house an old homestead. Now it is just open space that gets mowed throughout the season.

It was a good day, my friend found a walking half, and a merc, and I found one in a nice shape as well.

However, the most interesting thing I found was an iron arrow head. As you can see by some of the other stuff I found, there is definately some mid-late 1800's items at this site.

Does anyone have an idea on how old this arrow head is? You can see at the base there is still some sort of fiber wrapped around it.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I am by no means an expert but that puppy looks old. It will be interesting to see what the verdict will be.
