OBSIDIAN CORE 001.JPG

Found this on top of the ground while metal detecting in an area that had been recently graded up for a new trail. I am thinking it is a obsidian core from my internet research but not sure. Hope some knowledgeable people here could add more insight to this find. Thank you.

Very nice core to. Shows good detail on it. I bet if you go back to that spot there might be other things to find.

Where was it found? State, side of state like ne/nw/se/sw side of state. Could be a core? but area would help. Other pic's would also help.
I look forward to seeing and having a reference to where.

Montana, South West. Maybe 60 miles east of the Big Hole Battlefield but in the Deerlodge Valley.

I stuck the coin in there just to give a better idea of the size. Thanks

lcollins, Thank you! the area does make sense (GB) for an Obsidian core. Great find!
