Expert Valuations for Estates, Insurance, and Peace of Mind


Maybe it's a box from a grandfather's attic, a collection from the family farm, or a few pieces you found years ago. You have no idea if any of it is worth anything, and that's completely normal. You don't need to know a thing about arrowheads. That's our job.


I'm John, the owner of bannerstones.com. I've been identifying and valuing artifacts since 2006, and my team and I read every submission ourselves.


Within 24 hours, a real person will email you back with two things:

  • What you have. We'll tell you what your pieces are.
  • What it may be worth. You'll get a realistic idea of the value, so you know whether you have something special or something common.


Many people find out they have a real treasure. Others learn their pieces are common. Either way, you'll know where you stand. The first look costs nothing. We never ask for a credit card, and we never pressure you to do anything next.

Step 1: Take Clear Photos

To provide a fast, accurate, and FREE initial evaluation, please take photos using these basic suggestions:

  • Please use a ruler as shown in the photos here. It helps us best evaluate what you have.
  • Try to make sure you have great lighting.
  • Try to keep the photo size smaller so that the email goes through. If you don't know what that means, it's ok. Just send your photos.


Step 2: Email Your Details Directly to Us

  • Why you're asking. Curious, inherited, insurance, thinking about selling: any answer is fine, and "not sure" is fine too. It just helps us give you the most useful reply.
  • Where they came from. Whatever you know is great: who found them, where, and when. Family stories and old notes help a lot. If you don't know, that's okay.


Step 3: We Reply in 24 Hours

A real person will read your photos and email you back with what you have and what it may be worth. We'll also tell you what, if anything, makes sense to do next. You decide from there.
