These are pretty rare, my goal is to find a type 1.

What is the material, some type of quartz?

Great point. Those veins look cool as hell. When I first looked, I thought you were holding the three pieces of a broken point!

Some type of chert, my 1st with chocolate strips.

Great example of the II type. My understanding is that both of these variants of the type are classic and exclusive to the Northeast Gulf Coast.

That's true MA, very small region they're found in.
