I have been a metal detectorist for years and years, but have never found an arrow head.......until now.
While talking to my wife, I mentioned that I thought it was odd that I had never found an arrow head while metal detecting, odd considering I keep my eyes to the ground and detect in prime area's. So I made it a point to go out looking for points on this past friday, and found the tool (atleast I think its a tool, the one on the right). On Sat I went back out to the same place and found the point on the left, it appears the bottom of it was broken off. I found both of these on the Blanchard River in NW Ohio. Thanks for looking and thanks for any information you may be able to provide. HH.....Bill

Yep ! Artifacts. Material looks like black Upper Mercer (Coshocton).

With the base broken off, there's not much way to identify the specific type.

Now go find more :laughing7:
 

Congratulations! If you found those, there are more out there. Keep looking and good luck.
 

Congrats, keep up the good work and keep posting the more you find.

Very nice points.

Thats what I like going after something and getting it. I have heard your state is good for artifacts I :dontknow: . You did good in finding some tools on your trips. They are much older than a metal detecting
find. Thanks for sharing them sir.
