    A perfect example of a Savanah River. That is one fine point Musky.. Congrats.
    Maybe 37 can help you with the material type.

    I'd have to agree. That's a very nice Savanah River Point. It looks to shiny to be Kanawha Flint, but since you found it in a creek it may just be a polished piece of Kanawha, especially since you are right in the area for it.

    Very nice point. Congrats!!

    What about Upper Mercer if it's shinier than Kanawa?
