It's been awhile but went back to one of my quartz sites. I would've taken insitu's but I'm not allowed to take pictures or videos on this property (definitely not going to argue). Also found some not from quartz, rare for this area but it happens

Nice pics and they came to life with the back lighting. That pottery is thicker than what I find here in Central Florida.

Yeah I wouldn’t argue either! Nice finds. Are you walking an ag field? If so what are they growing? Those top three are some decent sized pieces of pottery and I can’t help but wonder how it’s been cultivated while still letting that pottery remain in such sizable pieces. Every field I hunt the pottery seems to be no bigger than those bottom three—and even then there are no guarantees. Fingers crossed I can get out today.

Thanks Hal, #2 was hard to get a decent picture; I had to do it at a odd angle.

...#2 reminds me of banded obsidian. That quartz really glows. If your day finds don’t get everyone within a 100 miles, attention, I don’t know what will...

It's primarily a hay field, I was shocked by the pottery myself, the 2nd piece is a inch and the 1st is around 2 3/4. I rarely find pottery but if I do it's plain and very small pieces.

It's definitely a higher grade, wish it was crystal quartz.

I found a few pieces in Central Florida while digging, found a huge part around 5 inches in length and close to 3 in width (no designs) the others were around 2 inches both length and width. I zoomed the pictures of the thickness, just to show the edges better.

Very nice finds. I found some quartz pieces in Talbot county but none further south.
