GUEST: Came down through
my great-great-uncle,

and my, it was passed on
to me from my grandfather.

APPRAISER: This is actually a
Zulu dance spear, and there're
some elements that are really

cool. This is horn here, and
these little dots are actually
bone. Down here we have

the same inlay. This is really
a terrific example. I think
this easily could be mid-19th

century, so 1850
at the earliest.

GUEST: Oh, wow-- it's
older than I thought.

APPRAISER: And at a
good auction, I would
say $800 to $1,200.

GUEST: Oh, wow, excellent!
