I think Peggy (Peggyg827) got to me when she called me at home and said she went out during her lunch break into a muddy plowed field. 
She did not say anything about finding that neat scrapper.... (she actually had no clue what it was)
Sooooo... I went to the large farm we had hunted before... it was still raining there. I got permission again and was told not to walk the plowed parts because it would make a mess. I could walk anywhere else. I was able to walk around the edges of the field and found this about 4 ft. into the plowed field. Sitting right on top of a turned over piece of sod.
this is about 3 inches long... and about an inch wide at it's widest. Although you can't see it clearly... the top edge seems to have been worked to make very tiny teeth. The underside is very smooth... and would call it flat except for the slight curve and twist.
I will have better pics tonight... I just couldn't wait to put this up!
At the time... I saw it as a huge flake or chip... I just dropped it in my pouch to show Peggy when she got home.
So at the time I was not too excited.
Here it is... please let me know what it might be... or what kind etc.

The following are some closer and hopefully more detail photos. I think you can see that one of the edges have been worked with some very fine knapping. The other edge has been worked as well but not as fine.
