I've been able to find a few that somewhat resemble this base but I can't make the call. Was hoping to get some help from others on this one. Found in a rock shelter in Kentucky. Stanley perhaps?

humm looks like a --"snapped point" heartbreaker type to me
 
Looks like a broken one to me, too..

To bad. Beautiful colors!
 
Kirk Stemmed Serrated Point. Would have been a killer if whole. Great looking material.

That's it! Thanks SRV. I completely overlooked the Kirk type on this one, I should know better.
 
Kirk's a lot of different basal configurations and i believe SRV is right on with the type.
 
That material is really nice. Do you know what kind of chert?

It looks like Carter Cave to me. Also referred to as Paoli Chert.

Have to agree with SRV, looks like Carter Cave. Most of the artifacts from this shelter are CC.
