okay i have a coon pick and i dont know what its for its sposed to be worth money so i will sell it to anyone who wants to buy it and id also love to know what it is used for?

can you post a picture

Are you talking about a male coon's penis? I have only seen one it looks like an ivory toothpick. I guess you could use it as a toothpick if you're brave enough.

A coon pick is a bone in the male coons penis (obviously a male since not many females have them, although nowadays with sex change operations you never know), that have been used for vent picks on black powder and I'm sure as a tooth pick.

yeah i read that it can be used as a toothpick and some other things as good luck but im not brave enough to stick a coons penis in my mouth if you know what i mean haha and yes im talking about a male coons penis he has a bone inside of it called a pick and i dont need it so id like to sell it if anyones interested.

Once they have been dried out, polished, and one end sharpened, they make excellent tooth picks. They look like Ivory, and for many years ( especially among the gullah and creoles) have been considered good luck charms. But like a rabbits foot, I can't see where the good luck comes from, since they apparantly didn't provide the animals with any luck!

haha well i just believe that some chinese dude decided to play a joke on some gullible american a long time ago and it stuck i mean who in there right mind would decide that putting a coons pecker in your mouth means good luck? its hilarious though ill give em that

and rthomas4 i like ure bottom line i completely agree with you if only we had won that war we wouldnt have any of the problems that we do have today

It is the OS penis. OS being short for osteo which in Latin means bone. Early explorers took them and cleaned them up knocked the knob off the end and sharpened it and did indeed use it as a tooth pick. Today you can make a few bucks by making earrings out of them. I in fact have in approx 5 inches long that i wear to fancy parties not only does it pizz off any anti there it sends some running for the porcelien god. They sell well at outdoor shows some fellas get a kick out of giving them to wives and/or girlfriends and let them wear them for several months before telling them they have coon pekkers in their ears. But before you start going and renting a booth at an outdoor show you're gonna need more products than that one.

haha yeah thats pretty funny and yeah i know i do alot of stuff like that i do animal pelts european mounts and a bunch of differant stuff i hate technology i love traditional stuff so thats how i spend all my time is hunting and fishin and stuff to do wit that

I used one for years as a toothpick, hung on a string around my neck, Great conversation piece at you local bar or restaurant...

Like an earlier posterstated the were used to clean the nipple on muzzleloaders in the earlier day's and yeah they may have been used for tooth pick's. Wow I don't think I've ever had anything stuck in my teeth that I needed to get out that bad
