Knightia Fish Fossil Appraisal

Mixed Collection of Arrowheads, Southwestern Jewelry, and Knightia Fish Fossil

This eclectic collection consists of eight distinct items housed in a black display case. The group includes six knapped stone projectile points (arrowheads) of varying lithic materials including gray chert, tan flint, and reddish-brown jasper. The points exhibit different typologies, including corner-notched and stemmed varieties, showing fine pressure flaking along the edges. Their sizes range from approximately 1 to 2.5 inches in length. Central to the display is a Southwestern-style silver-tone metal pin/brooch featuring a circular medallion with a stamped sunburst or floral motif, adorned with dangling feather charms and tiny polychrome beads in red, yellow, and blue. At the bottom lies a rectangular sedimentary stone slab containing a fossilized Knightia fish, characteristic of the Green River Formation, Wyoming (Eocene epoch). The fossil shows clear skeletal structure, fins, and vertebral details against a light cream-colored limestone matrix. The items appear to be in good collectible condition; the arrowheads show no modern breakage, though some edges exhibit natural ancient wear. The fossil slab has a visible diagonal fracture line common in such specimens but remains stable. This collection represents a mix of archaeological, paleontological, and decorative craft elements, likely assembled as a souvenir or personal hobbyist display.
