NC Palmer perhaps? Need help on material

[the_mad_cladder]

My luck the first day I get free for a rock hunt the weather goes to snot. Fields need another good rain or two and it's gonna really pic up. My buddy found the bottom of a hardaway and I picked up this gem. Can anyone help me out with the material? The flaking is awesome.

Definate Palmer. Where in NC are you? Near the Mountains? Points that age and older I see more Silicified Shale and Rhyolite. Your material looks more glossy than those. Looks like Coshocton Chert that is found more west of the mountains. That being said I have found points in central NC made of material 2 or 3 states away. There is a glossy Bluish grey chert yours looks a lot like and for the life of me I can't remember the name of it. Maybe someone else here knows.

I'm in middle NC....More north. I find flakes of very similar materials from time to time but never a whole point. Definitely not the typical material. It looks good in the shadow box.

Gray Flint or Hornstone?

Now that's a little beauty and yes a Palmer similar to the one in my avatar. The archy here told me it's a transitional Paleo Archaic point. Is it gray or black? The archy also said the black flint is not native to NC but came from east TN. Congrats on a great find!
