Yep...a once in a life time find for sure. She spotted it on a bank and almost didn't pick it up thinking it was glass. It's very hard to photograph due to the glare but it is fluted (not basally thinned) on both sides but they don't show well in the photo. About 2.5" long. Quartz crystal is not unknown but rare here...most of our stuff is coastal plains chert. We've found a few paleos but this is the best.

Thanks for your interest. I've lived and breathed this stuff since I was a kid and always thought about writing a song about it. But you nailed it!! And like you wrote we always think about who last held it.


Here's a link to a photo. I used it as our avatar on some relic sites.
