Does anyone know what kind of projectile point this is? Found in central Maryland. Thanks for any help!

Beautiful material. Looks like it has an impact fracture at the tip. I can't help with ID on this one.
 
Thank you! It was found in Howard County, Maryland.
 
1) Definitely baked (heat treated) jasper.

2) Can't tell from the picture with certainty (the marbled section makes it conjectural), but it very much looks like a small blade struck from a bipolar blade core that was scavenged by later people & modified into a notched point.

FWIW
 
Thank you so much!
