This is the photo from my earlier post Reflecting on 2021, the 16th image where the hammerstone is shown in the mud, found 10/29/2021.
I find this hammerstone unique with the peck marks still visible on much of the surface and the distinct flattened area from some abrading or grinding.
I had it cleaned up, but had not posted any cleaned up photos. This hammerstone was found a few miles from my home, in the same field last spring I found a nice coshocton flint thebes and a few nice cobbs blades [the same day].
I am not sure if I posted the finds that day, so here is the thebes from 03/25/2020. I was pretty busy hitting the fields that month and did not have a lot of posting time.
The hammerstone in the mud
Cleaned up, note the 3 flat areas on the stone, 2 1/2 inches (roughly) in diameter
