[QUOTE="Theodosius, post: 2960592, member: 77077"]Another pickup from the recent FUN show is this rather spectacular bronze spear point from the Abe Rosen collection. I knew I had to have it as soon as I saw it so I kind of tuned out the dealer's patter about what a great piece it was and where it was from and yeah, yeah, whatever, I will take it. :-) If you are familiar with the SNG series that the spear is sitting on, you will know they are folio sized, meaning huge (15x12 inches). The spear point is over 17 inches long and maxed out my gram scales. It is from about 1000 BC. [ATTACH=full]724555[/ATTACH] Because I like a still life with coins, I threw in some random lots of coins I got from Nick at Pegasi. Another view: [ATTACH=full]724560[/ATTACH] John[/QUOTE]
