    First Perforated Disc.

    Here is a nice little Perforated Discodial from Indiana I got in the mail yesterday. Made from granite and is a real nice piece in hand. Thanks for looking!

    Love it. That hardstone frame seems to be getting more and more goodies.

    Thanks guys! I believe they are from the Mississippian time period, and were used as gameing stones. I should have the frame done by the 20th at the show if anyone can come, stop on by.

    Hey Andy,
    This is not much like what you have ,but do you have an opinion on what it is. I found it many years ago in my best producing site. I thought it was a bead or something.

    Jeff,
    It is hard to tell from the pic., but is the hole all the way through? The shape says small cone to me, but like I said it's hard to tell. If you can try and take a pic. in the sunlight of it. For some reason they always look better in sunlight.
