Looks like a little quartz triangle but a general location and other angles would help, look into Madison, jug hill, Levanna, Fresno, fort ancient… really depends on location

Dalton is not impossible, but if it is ground in the basal concavity, and lower blade edges, it may more likely be a Middle-Late Archaic Snappit point, which are often erose, and most often made of quartz. If there is no grinding, it would likely type as a Squibnocket triangle, which persisted from Late Archaic well into Woodland times. Snappit and heavily resharpened “New England style” Dalton related points can be really difficult to separate, esp. as surface finds.

Agree I think a Dalton would be heavily ground and probably discarded at that size.
