Copper Culture Spearhead

[Acejeckel]

Hello everyone I found this last week and posted it in Today's Finds with some other things I found but wanted to share it with everyone here also.
I found it along a river in southeast Michigan. It was only 2" deep and under a giant oak tree.

Its pretty cool to see the layers of copper.

I know Mich. has raw copper. This is Indian made? How cool is that.

Very cool!

My office is in Ann Arbor, there are a lot of good looking fields between the airport and Ann Arbor.

Banner! That has a shape that I have seen before. Kind of similar to a hammered out HellGap.
Does anyone know if there is a precedent for Paleo Copper Artifacts?

What a great find!
