I found two antelope sheds next to one another in Montana. After showing them off at camp it turned out to be two lefts.

i always thought they shed and regrew the sheath only.

The way I understand it is they shed the sheath and it's rare to find them because they deteriorate fairly fast in the elements.
Could be wrong but this is the way it was explained to me.

yes, it's the hair-like sheath. Pretty rare find. I found an old thunderhead broadhead and an indian arrowhead the same day...strange.
