My first arrowhead

[Z73A]

This is my first arrowhead. Found in Wayne county Ohio. I've researched identification and believe this to be a Snyder point. Made from either upper mercer/coshocton chert or zaleski chert.

Very nice! I'm still trying to find an unbroken one!

Danged nice little point!

That's a pretty little point. The bad news is that when your first point is that nice, you generally become hopelessly addicted.

It looks a bit small for a Snyder to me, but maybe. Have you looked as the Jacks Reef point type?

 

[Z73A]

I'm definitely hooked. Always wanting to look for more.

I guess I over looked that point type. I'll have to take another look at the point when I get home and Compare both types.
Thanks for your input!

Your off to a very good start! Nice one.

Great first find you sure won't forget that one

I agree, very nice first point, get ready to be disappointed, next one most likely want be as nice as they are usually thousands of years old. I also agree it looks little like a snyder but it is rather small for a snyder, to me it looks more like a jacks reef like joshuaream said.

Again very nice point. Consider making it into a necklace, have gold wire wrapped around the base to hold on a necklace.

Going to be the centerpiece of a very nice collection in the near future

Good for you, a dandy first point.

Nice 1st find. Some dont wash theirs I understand but believe it or not you could scrub it pretty good with a toothbrush without hurting it and the dirt will stay in some sections. That 1st layer of dirt is very hard to remove after its been there for 1000s of years.

Congrats! Shes a beauty! Excellent save

That is a sweet little point, no matter what name it ends up being given !
If the base was ground, and was found in my area, I might call it an Amos, with what looks to be some serrations cutting through the soil that remains on the edges.
