I was walking through my father in laws plowed field yesterday
when I noticed something laying just on the outside of one of
the rows and picked it up and took it in to show Dave and he
thinks its an Indian spear weight or some ceremonial piece.
What do you all think it could be, its about 6 inches long and
is made out of some type of rock with circles in it.
Better pictures will follow when my sister in law brings my camera back.

Hey Allen, congratulations on your find and the banner.
Shelbyville or Bagdad, you don't have to tell me.
I know a lady in bagdad that found a killer pipe
in one of her fields. It's about 8" long and shaped
like a bird. It's perfect except one of the ears is
broke off.
