Here are some of mine. The one below the top right
was found by my Dad and I. There is a rule when I
hunt...The one to find the last piece gets the whole
thing, lucky him! The white one at the bottom left
was found a couple years apart in a farm field. It's an
awesome feeling to pick up something and recognize
the break outline or go home and match em' up!

Wow dollarzero!!!! You have been very lucky in finding the two pieces to make a piece whole again. Great job!

I've only been lucky enough to find one piece that I could put back together and I found it the same day about 35 feet apart along the banks of the Ohio River. I didn't glue it together to show how it was found in two pieces and the fact that it has a fossil right at the break and that's what caused the break.

This isn't a very good picture of it, but it's the only one I have. It is the Stemmed Point in the small tray on the left.

Thanks dollarzero...The one in the first pic was a fresh break, found in a road, so glued back perfect. It also has a very good bevel.
I will try to post a pic from the point so you can see the bevel. Amazing how they made such good points and blades from quartzite.

Heres a couple I found. I have more, but no pics of em. I generally find them at least a year apart, but the brown one was found the same day on a lake shore here in N.E. Texas. This is a good reason to keep all your brokes together, and segregated by site.
