Is this Coshocton Chert? Buddy found this blade as a kid on my present day stompin grounds of east central Illinois. He's a Vietnam vet and one of my close friends. Beautiful piece of work. Any ID cultural classification would be nice too.

It could be, I believe it's more common to have blue/white vines rather than brown, but not unheard of to have some coshocton with darker streaks. Does it have any small fossils in it? It's a bit far for it to get to Illinois, but the trade route out of Ohio definitely made it over there. Do you have anything locally that might look similar?Central Ohio

Hoosier, if you could post a few more pics, maybe some close ups I can identify if it's Coshocton. Below is a link that may be helpful.
