    Maybe another Copper Indian artifact

    Got out a couple times in 2020 and found mostly clad. I did stumble on another Copper piece I think is Native American. My research says it looks like an AWL or NEEDLE as it has a very sharp end and the other end is blunt. Two local guys I know are not sure as they have not seen many of this type of artifact but say it definitely has the right look. Anyway I'll post a picture of it and some of my other artifacts if anyone has additional opinions. Thx Wisconsin Digger

    I would say it definitely is a copper culture artifact. It does have that "look" to it. An awl is a good guess or perhaps a broken tine to something?? Cool find what ever it is.
    Oldest find: 5,000 year old copper spearhead
    Oldest coin: 1699 William III halfpenny
    Purdiest coin: 1832 Capped Bust quarter
    Coolest find: USA button with blue threads still on shank
