Today's hunt 6-1-23

[antmike915]

Finally got a chance to look yesterday (found absolutely nothing) and today.
#1 small Abby (2 by 1 7/8)
#2 small possible Savannah River (2 by 1 6/8
#3 a really worn down Hernando drill (1 3/8 by 1).

I really like the Hernando drill because I don't find much Hernando anything.

Two points and a drill is a great day in my book

Those are really nice finds. Drills made from identifiable points types are so cool. Especially when the base is intact.
The two points look to be made of a similar material.
That’s a good day out!

Glad you found a few. I’m a Abby fan so of course it’s my favorite.

Agree about any type of drill, since they're usually broken. The Abby is white chert (usually turns caramel color if soaked in mineral oil). The Savannah River is glossy white chert; most likely heat treated and a better grade of material.

Thanks Newnan, that's probably going to be my find of the year (since I'm not able to get out much anymore).

Thanks; I'm a Abby fan too. Especially the extreme Beveled ones.

Thanks, I was just glad to get out those past few days. My back and feet paid the price but that's ok.
