9.75 clovis

I posted about this when he found it but thought I would put it up again since I found another link to it.
This is a friend of mine who I TRIED to keep up with walking creeks. LOL he is indeed a master.

I am sure doubters would be all over this one but I assure you it is legit and he has walked no TELLING how many hundred miles before finding this one.

One of the links at the bottom of that page has some more pics and story to it.

WOW, would love to see that one in person. Very rare, especially that size. In 25 years of hunting I've only found one complete Clovis.

I have found a couple decent ones over the years, but I would die of a heart attack if I found that one, you are looking at 50,000-75,000 bucks there.

Steve Hamm now owns this piece

Thats indeed a jewel of some Paleo candy. I got to see it in person last year at arrowhead show in Ohio and is amazing.

Steve Hamm now owns this piece

Very cool.
I wondered if he ever sold it or not.
Heard a couple of figures that he turned down but never talked to him in person since the find.

That is a find of 10 lifetimes.

With the current clovis conversation I thought I would bring this one back up.

So what kind of figures do you recall him turning down??

That is one amazing piece

I know for a fact he turned down $250,000 at a show in Texas.
I also heard he accepted an offer that was about $220,000 less than that.

Don't know the exact number.
I also heard rumors that he made it but it's hard for me to believe that since it was authenticated twice.

Lots of mystery surrounding it.
Could have been drummed up to protect him as well as the buyer.

I've seen that rock in person and it was impressive however the general consensus at one of the shows he displayed it at was it was indeed fake and that killed that rock. It was already suspicious enough. He sold the rock to Steve hamm for way way less than he was asking. It now resides in Memphis last I heard.

That's sad.

That's sad.

Even though it was killed at the show it still sold for big money. Unfortunately the guy who bought is a known to sell modern points as authentic.

Also that rock hasn't been publicly displayed since that show so that itself screams fake. You know if you owned one of the finest Clovis in the world it would be published in several rock magazine/books but it's not.
