    Ready for this guys???? Another FOLSOM!!!!!!!!!!!

    Whoot Whoot!
    Now this cant compare to the "Gaines" Folsom the least bit, as no other Folsom probally will

    This one is all there minus a small shear to one ear, side A exhibits a full flute, side be the flute is off center a little bit. This point must have been much larger as there is only a small amount of basal grinding on one side.
    The material is amazing on this one, as I have yet to see anything made from it!
    If anyone can help ID the material, please let me know, i would like to see how far this little guy had traveled, and at the moment i cannot shell out 500.00 for the book from Mountain Peaks to Alligator Stomachs:/

    Paleo is out there guys! My good friend got his Gaines last week and this week this tiger eye!

    coins are side-by-side on the banner all the time, I think two folsums would look fine up there. I voted! If Manchu hadn't found his already, this one would be up there. This is a treasure for the Flintstone types

    Great piece Chong! I vote banner as well!

    I was thinking Hartville Uplift. I'm not sure if it's the same as Trout but they are both dentritic material.

    No Banner yet

    Come on Mods, this one deserves the Banner big time.
