I may have posted this before but I’m not sure, found in my yard was wondering about it today, I think there’s a chance it’s transitional but I’ve never been able to pin it down

Looks like the lower part of a Paleolithic point, very nice find
 

It does look like a quad but I do not think it is. Are there any basal grinding?

The lenticular cross section without any median ridge I think is too thick for a beaver lake.

What other types of relics have been found in the vicinity of where this was found?

It may be a Bifurcated Stemmed variety.
 

I think it’s ground, not so good at telling but not particularly sharp and looks like the edges are less than crisp
Here are the others

Having a heck of a time dating the site when no two points are alike but the options seem to cluster around early archaic maybe some transitional

The olive one in the bottom corner might have been a monster based on the the angles and no hint of barbs or anything.
The one below the packard has flaking that reminds me of a Scott’s bluff type, but the form isn’t really right
