Spear of Destiny - The art and legend of the Lance of Longinus. Today, the history of the lance still remain a mystery and acquired great mystical power!
The spear is reputed to be the one that pierced Christ’s side as He hung upon the cross, Hitler discovered that there were at least three other “holy” spears in Europe at that time. One was in the Vatican. A second had been taken to Paris at the time of the Crusades. Another was to be found in a church in Cracow, Poland. But the Spear of Longinus, named after the Roman centurion who wielded it, had commanded most attention. The reason: attached to its handle is a nail reputedly used in the Crucifixion.

(only 2 comments, I just knew I had it made. OOOps.)
Besides,the spear in question looks to be an eighth century AD boar hunting point.
All 3 lances are not from the time of Jesus. This is just a same thing like all the nails that were from the cross of Jesus- If all those spears and nails would have been real, Jesus would have had more of the appearnce of Krishna with his multiple arms and hands and a whole squad of Roman soldiers would have stabbed him.
I never heared of any Biblical texts or apocryphical texts that tell such a story...
That's why people keep looking for actual historical artifacts from the time of Jesus. Humans are very literal-minded, and have trouble seeing religious events in their real sense: as myths. As myths, they remain powerful, but they are not part of our ordinary material world.

I removed the glowing nail for your safety
How does this effort to acquire the Spear of Longinus make the world a better place? Is it going to feed the hungry? Is it going to care for those condemned by society?
