Sorry, from the pics, looks like so many pieces of non descript pieces of metal I throw away when detecting.

It is a flint flake, blew it up pretty large and do not see any edge work on it, they may have planned to knap it and never got to it.

Thank you treasure hunter. Pics arent the best. It does look like it may be half done. The first pic. The bottom half is not smooth like the redt of it.

I believe I'd give that creek another chance. May be a really nice find there. Good luck.

If you look at the edges there is no flaking fisable, flint can fracture very smooth.

Yeah I'd definitely remove the first and last picture at least. That's pretty dangerous having that card visible. Cant help with the piece, other than its flint

looks natural to me, unlike the merchandise somebody just ordered using your credit card number
