Description from the seller

Neolithic large flint hand tool in very good condition
5000-2000 BC
14.5 cm x 2.5 cm x 1.8 cm
The tool was found in Mern in the southern part of the island of Zealand, Denmark

I bought the tool around 2005 in Copenhagen

From the age of fifteen up to seventy I built a large collection of Bronze and Stone Age objects. All of them from Western Europe and bought from private individuals, at auctions, collector markets, antique shops and sometimes given. I am now 86 and it is time to part with my collection.

I have no certificates of authenticity or receipts and can only say that I obtained the objects legally.
If in doubt, please do not buy

Note!

I do not ship outside Europe
