MarcusCoins Valued Member Canada 80 Posts	Posted 07/10/2015 09:40 am Hello coin community! Recently bought this at auction, where it was sold as "Roman Arrowhead". I don't think it's roman, but rather parthian. Unfortunetly, I'm basing my conclusions on very little. Can anyone shine some light on this? What's it rarety/value etc? Weight: 32g Length: 74mm/7.4cm Material: Bronze Origin:? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

I think it may be Chinese. See these for comparison: http://www.dhgate.com/product/011-c...7112696.html and Last one in this group: http://ancientpoint.com/inf/21350-c...ds_ct10.html Edited by Kamnaskires 07/10/2015 10:12 am Report this Post to the Staff
