Most of the quartz ones I find here are Morrow Mountains.
 

Please let us know what state you found it in for an accurate answer.
Being quartz does not make it a morrow mountain ..they were made with several different materials depending alot on where they came from.
That being said it does look like a Morrow Mountain.

If it was from Delaware its probably part of the peidmont style of points. I call them eastern stemmed. If you are using overstreet you can look at bare island or newmanstown. IMO they all are considered eastern stemmed. Usually the only difference in the stemmed ones around hear is a slight bulge on the base.
 

I'm seeing more of a stemmed guilford from this angle. Is the base ground? If not, the fellas probably made a good call.
 

It does look to have a bit much of a diamond shaped cross section for a Morrow.

Yeah, im not seeing morrow mt. I'm not familiar with Delaware finds either. Didn't he say Delaware? Could be morrow mt. With a small break on the stem
 

He never said where it was from.
 

Southern PA, so it was most likely manufactured by a member of the Lenni Lenape tribe
 

Could be before tribes.
 

Looks like a Piskataway or a Poplar Island..hopefully someone from your area knows more about Pennsylvania points than I do.
Poplar Island can be 6,000 yrs. Old and Piskataway can be as recent as 500 so that's going to need some narrowing down for sure.
 

You know what? This could be a savannah river resharpened on both sides. Makes it look morrow mt. Kinda. Think about the piece I'm about to post, resharpened on both sides and tell me if you agree.
