Santa Fe River find in the1970's & the 2 color from Pasco Co in the 80's. If you can enlarge the 2 color one the material actually is different for the colors. The reddish color has slight bands running across it. It's clear under a magnifying glass. I think it's Fossil Chert.

Solll is right. Fossil chert is full of shells and they fall out leaving holes. That's just a base of another point that has the 2 tone thing going on.
