    Looks like either a Marion or a Levy point (per Overstreet). Nice made point in great condition.

    Good find.

    Hillbilly,
    That's a real nice little point! I'm not one to collect points from outside my area, but thats a point that I would buy for the material. Thanks for sharing bud.

    Now that is different, we have a mineral in AR,
    that forms like a little 'mushroom', & when broken,
    looks like flower pedals.

    Nice point.

    Huh... That's cool! Very unusual. We have a lot of fossilized coral around here and I would have never thought of thinking a point would have been made out of the stuff. Thanks for sharing, Razor
