Shipping by Priority Mail is included with the price. Out of the Norman Reid collection, Edwards County, Illinois, and the private museum he maintained with his collection in Bone Gap, Illinois. The Celt is 4&1/8" by 2&1/4",and 1&3/8" max thickness; good bit, but work dulled. Cultural history is either Adena or Hopewell Culture (Woodland Period), so as old as 2500BP or as recent as 500--800 common era. Personal opinion, I see the heel as square enough that I expect the piece is Hopewell, but that's strictly my opinion. While pecked to form, one rock (hammerstone) against another (the future Celt), then ground smooth, there was very little polish--even the bit area. This was obviously a work tool, not a "show your friends your skill" made Celt. Chopping trees meant you cooked and your family stayed warm; tools were often just 'everyday' pieces. Every detail is lifetime guaranteed real, period. Checks or M.O.s (or cash) welcomed, however I do not use paypal--Roy A.
