Possible ancient copper or lead arrowhead.

Found this when I was looking for arrowheads and rocks in the water.
Contacted local University and they are “quite interested” and are going to run it through the M4 Tornado XRF machine to give me some more information about it on April 12. I am very excited.
It picks up on a metal detector and on my wife’s electrical meter. But it is non magnetic. It appears to have possible tool marks.
