Flea market point

[Justlookdown]

Hello all. I found this at the local flea market today along side a pile of other points and fragments from an "old collector of it all". This one I could not identify the type ... any help is much appriciated.

Ps. Deffinetly obsidian and from the west.

My personal opinion is that it looks modern ? A flea market is a great place for forgers to pass off their items. Hope I am wrong and someone with knowledge comes along and says it is authentic.

Hard to tell from 1 pic. It looks nice & fakers usually fake the big expensive points. Someone should be able to tell for sure.

The zoomed in picture shows really good obsidian patina (it looks like that really thin skin that comes off when you cut an onion.) That can likely be faked, but isn’t often faked on more common points.

I think it’s an authentic little point.

Can you get a shot of the point on it's edge and the other side?

Rabbit Island maybe not knowing where it was found .

Looks good to me, flaking is correct for type...…..could also be a Rabbit Island
