parts and pieces

[JUNKYARD DOG]

got out a couple days this week nothing in the creek, waters real
low and lots of moss and dried up mud. Did find a couple of tips and bases in the field
would like to know what you think the big white chert piece was, the tip looks
big and wide. i dug up and kicked around the imeadiate area but
no partner for it. Good luck to all and HH. JYD...

I dont know exactly what you mean by a platter Tn, but thanks for the reply. Its been real tough going for me this year but as soon as I get my back to cooperate I plan on hitting it hard. I really appreciate having this forum to see what everyone is finding but I also get frustrated that I cant do as much as I want. Get back to me on the round platter piece. Thanks again Tn. and good luck.

Nice finds Junkyard!

That would have been one killer piece by the looks of it! Is the base of the broke point in the 4th picture actually hollow, or am I seeing shadows?

Thanks for the reply jrsherman, yea I wish it were whole, alot of what I find in this field are broke, alot of plowing and discing over the years. That point your asking about just looks that way from the way it was broken. Thanks again and good luck to you... JYD...

Some interesting pieces there. I like the colors, it look's like most of it is good quality stone. I have a good many large broken pieces also. Farming equipment is pretty hard on these large pieces
