If you're a serious collector of historical items then finding Native American arrowheads has to be the Holy Grail for you

. These artifacts carry valuable historical significance and you can be sure they'll have value to someone else. But some people who are not well trained at such things may do stuff which jeopardizes the value of the piece. You need to be made aware of all of this otherwise you may end up devaluing your arrowhead. They'll all come in some sort of fragile form when you find them which is why you need to be even more careful. Here are the conditions you'll come across when finding Native American arrowheads.

The pieces may come broken so you'll need to be trained good to know when you've spotted them

They may be very wet and in need of immediate preservation if you hope to keep them in good condition

They may be badly rusted, but this is a good thing. If you clean them you may diminish their value or ruin them. This is why it's important to get them in a safe place right away.

Why is this all important and why should I care?

If you plan on finding Arrowheads as a hobby then you may not care about the condition they come in. But to the serious collector they would have a heart attack if they knew you though this way. When you begin finding Native American arrowheads this will be a sign that there are more valuable items to be had nearby. If you're not properly trained to seek out these items you won't even notice the broken pieces when you begin to find them. You may even think their junk, but I assure you that there are more valuable pieces nearby. It may be a good idea to consider the following if you don't know about finding arrowheads yourself.

Bring along a serious collector so they can identify when you've hit a hot spot. They may become more excited then you are.

Consider contacting an archaeologist if you can. These people will be able to comb the area and find many valuable pieces to research and put on display for others to look at. You may not be able to keep the pieces yourself, but you can rest good knowing you found something of such historical value.

Bring along the proper materials to collect the items. If you don't do this you could end up destroying what could be a monumental find.

If you find a Native American arrowhead in good condition be proud of yourself. Finding arrowheads in a good condition is really rare and they will certainly have historical value. The items will not have sharp points because the people who created them were only concerned with the effectiveness of the items and not aesthetics.

I'll leave you with this, when finding Native American arrowheads it may be a good idea to give them a historical society who'll be able to make better use of them. After all they are a piece of history.
