Incredible if it’s authentic!
I have no clue about obsidian points from your area. I do have a few gem points in my collection that somehow found there way to the East coast. I buy them when I run across them because they are just cool!

It looks like a northern side notched to me the desert delta series usually have much shorter blades, thinner notches and are rarely over an inch in length where the northern side notch has a much longer blade and wider notches. I don't know much about tyre cold springs type though.

I looked on projectile points and the northern side notch fits the type perfectly and states in the additional comments that the Cold Springs variety overlaps the time period and location of this point and has no distinguishing differences between them. So basically they are the same point with 2 different names. Very interesting. Thanks for the opinions and info

JMHO but I see a large Desert Series arrow point. I have seen Desert Series points of up to 2" long. This point is to finely made and refined. I can post a couple pictures later if need be but Northern's are a much heavier made point and a little differently made. They may look similar and over lap geographically but they were made thousand of years apart. I have no doubt its not a Northern or Cold Spring
