We always called them cultivator blades.

Yes cultivator points but also wide bi-face blades can be used to plow out root crops. I doubt peanuts at your latitude but likely potatoes. Perhaps the sweet potatoes the natives taught us how to grow?

Nice finds! I know they must have rung your headset!

If they are plow points or cultivator blades, how were they attached to the Georgia Stock or implement?...d2

That's a great question because I don't see a bolt or clevis pin hole anywhere!
