Need some help on this one

This looks like a Clovis to me, but I thought I'd let everyone weigh in. Found in an early Archaic/transitional Paleo site. Thanks!

Does it have basal grinding? I thought I heard Clovis points are ground down where it attaches to a shaft.

Very nice find and pretty material, but it sorta hides the flaking. Could you take a picture with the light at an angle that highlights the flaking for us? One from the edge might tell us something too. And as Niffler asked, is there any basal grinding?

Any chance the state archeologist is versed in ancient stone tools? The one we had was an expert in paleo tools. Sometimes you get lucky. What ever it is like 1320 said said it is an exceptional example.
