Some recent finds

[SCrocks]

Picked up a few decent points along with the usual broke pieces and a couple quartz tools. Also a old bottle, flat button and mother of pearl button around an old home place that was pushed up. Thanks for the look

All great finds! What kinda bottle was that do you reckon? I'm always curious about those.

Thanks- I have no clue but they must be kind of common. Maybe a medicine bottle? I have found a few just like it at other old home sites over the years.

Nice finds! Great variety of materials. Whats the grey-blue looking material on the right side of the first pic, Rhyolite? The banded material on the left side of the third pic is nice too. Love the Quartz ovate looking things, all three pieces in the third pic are killer. Thanks for the show.

Nice finds there SCrocks. That is a sharp looking white quartz Guilford in your hand in the first photo. What do you make of the two rhyolite points next to it, the upper one looks to have some slight indentations or notches near the base, do you consider it a type of Guilford, more of a triangle, or something else altogether? The rhyolite point below that has such a wide base that it looks to be an unusual form as well?
PS. I think the bottle would have held shoe or leather polish, we have found some like that with the dauber or swab, or whatever they are called, still inside them, probably dates to the 1920's. HH

Nice show of finds SCrocks

Redbeard the one with the slight notches I believe is a eared yadin. The other like you said don't fit the usual forms that I'm aware of anyway. It is thin and I believe is from the woodland period. Found a few triangles at the spot a while back made of the same material and same patina.
Theviking I beleive it is ryholite with some impurities that weather/patina differently. -Thanks-
