This is a collection of 10 bronze arrow points, 5 iron spear or lance points, and one Roman iron lance point excavated in Europe. The bronze points likely date to around 300 BC, give or take a few centuries. The iron points probably date to between 200 AD and 1200 AD. These are good examples to add to your collection. Feel free to make an offer on one point or on the entire set, or on any combination in between.

This is a very rare barbed iron spear head. This spear point was found near the Danube River in Germany and is a LaTene period Celtic piece dating to roughly 200 BC. It is 218mm in length and is in good, solid condition. It has a slight bend in it near the middle. The Celts were notorious for human sacrifices and the dedication of articles (including weapons) to their gods. Could this have been used in such a sacrifice?
