Cooper County, Missouri – Bennett Papered Agate Basin Point

Some artifacts are simply nice examples. Others are the kind of pieces collectors search for over a lifetime. This Agate Basin point from Cooper County, Missouri falls into the second category.

Expertly crafted from Mozarkite — Missouri’s official state rock, this Paleo piece shows the kind of workmanship that made Agate Basin points famous among serious collectors. The flaking is clean and deliberate, the blade proportions are balanced, and the overall symmetry reflects the confident hand of a skilled Paleo flintknapper over 10,000 years ago.

Finding an Agate Basin is special. Finding one made of high-grade Mozarkite with strong eye appeal is far less common. Having one that is professionally papered by Bennett elevates it into the category collectors actively compete for.

Missouri Paleo material with solid provenance does not surface often, and when it does it rarely stays available for long.

If you collect quality Plains-related Paleo forms, Missouri artifacts, or simply exceptional early points, this is the type of piece that fills a gap in a collection—and once it’s gone, you may wait years to find another comparable example.

Opportunities like this are not just purchases. They are upgrades to a collection.
