Found this point yesterday while doing a coyote stand in Hollister. Does anyone know of this a Pinto Basin?
thanks for looking

Nice find. The basal area, which is many times diagnostic for typing, looks to have some damage. Still, someone may be able to type it for you. Southfork would be a good one to chime in on this since he is on the west coast and is pretty good at typology; especially for far west finds.

Not enough left on base to tell.

... AND Welsbury would be another with good input here (didn't mean to slight you friend!)

Thanks for the photos Welsbury, the base is missing but really resembles your point in the right.

Hard to type without the base but still a nice find .

Like the others have stated above.....needs the base for a certain ID on it but I'll add that a lot of Pintos have serrations like Welsbury's so at least it could be. Those serrations would also eliminate several types for me too.
