thx for the link to the post lj,i joined a month after that.after reading that thread and looking in a couple books i would be inclined to type it as a diamond regardless of what the "experts" think.lol,but then again i dont know the types from that area other than what i have read.great find, too bad you didnt find anymore in that sandpit.so what did you end up typing it as?thx for sharing the pics :thumbsup:
 

HEY lj,just looked at those other post,killer stuff dude.that boatstone is killer and i really dig the guns.its alright you dont spell so good,you dont have to when you are finding relics like that!thx for the show :notworthy:
 

Thanks for linking up those older posts littlejohn. That pistol and boatstone are incredible, two of the nicest finds I've seen here, banner finds for sure.
 

I have some shaped like that. My dad picked them up in Algeria. I always thought they were some kind of arrow point.

i though it was a ceremonial bat wing gary,
but Neanderthal ,said it was a
Caddoan knife,which he said is a type of gary
i came to learn he is a very very smart man.and i have to belive what he said
.as i know he knows tons more than me.
if it was a peisker diamond, it be out of area,and mostly the best ever seen.
i sent it in many years ago,to get it paper.
the man sent it back,and would not paper it
he said , its a florida point.and i could not have found it in texas
but it was, found in texas.
there was 4 people dugging when it was found.
so i really just don't know,i know there been a lot of people who wants to buy it.
it want be sold as long as i am alive
hmmmmm.........matt is a smart fella and knows his artifacts.i have never seen a caddoan knife that had shoulders and a stem??i could very well be wrong.have you lj?I dont buy into the thinking that types didnt travel out of their so called "distribution range"it is what it is and doesnt matter where the heck you found it,it is an exact match for a peisker diamond point imo,but it is disqualified because it was found in texas?no biggie i guess,its a killer relic regardless what anyone wants to call it :thumbsup:
 

This has been a great post. Have enjoyed seeing so many nice artifacts. :thumbsup:
 

Some more drills, first handful is personal finds, check out that oddball on the left, strange piece...never really seen anything like it. Second one I found last year, imo it was either a Kirk or Lost Lake. The last three found there way into my collection somehow, I dont have any info on them.

Nice, great drill man...it's pretty similar in form and material to my second piece I posted this evening. Va. find?
 

Trying to get a decent picture of my Dad's finds in Algeria. My son mounted them in a case for a Boy Scout "show & Tell" and caulked the back to keep prying fingers out of the display. From half way around the world and look like they came from the same Wall Mart.
