Found a Fantastic Spearpoint/Knife Today in Central California!!

[Rowdy Yates]

The rains have been very good for me lately..... I found this today in Central California. It's absolutely perfect! It's 4 1/4" long and made from Monterey Chert. There's a fair amount of caliche adhering to one side, but I figure I won't scrub it off. I'm pretty stoked! Any ideas as to style, age, and value?? (I also posted this in the Native American section.......)

Thanks,

Rick

Super find and I would not clean off the caliche if it was mine. If you ever decide to get a certificate of authentication it would make a nice center piece in a display...

In overstreet it looks like a nightfire point, 8000-5000 years old, they look like they are valued pretty good also, nice find
