what a unique find, size wise? as big as a quarter?

 

[joshuaream]

Very cool! Can you share any info on it? From Ohio, Hopewell or Ft. ancient.?

Found in the Tenessee valley Josh. Hopewell. He sold all of his collection. But bought this piece back recently. Thanks for viewing!

Very nice, I've owned a couple of decent examples, but nothing quite as nice as that one.

I never measured it, but I guess its around 2 inches in diameter. It makes my ear lobes hurt just thinking about it.

oddly, those are all the rage with kids these days. That, I'll never understand.

 

[catherine1]

I was tempted to put a string on it.

Not a earspools but a earplug use to place in an opening of the earlope. Other words for pierces ears. A personal find of mine. Dont know what type of white rock it is made from.
