Not sure but I think it is a Native American ceremonial stone that would be the centerpiece of any collector. I am curious to find out for certain though.

Agree with RW. I think they are called "banner stones."

That's a Gorget and a Sweet one at that!!!!!! Let's hear the story, must hunt their whole life and NEVER find a piece of one. CONGRATZ...

You should post this in the native american artifacts. They dont call them banner stones for nothin. seriously, this could be a banner find.

"hand drilled stone" - that is the understatement of the year. Native American slate gorget! And a beauty at that. These are rare and expensive. Nice job.

I dont know if you can view this page but that is pretty much the story of my day hunting yesterday when I found it. I was hunting beach glass and fossils in my favorite hunting area and saw this. I try to hunt after high water and that happened about a week ago.
