So is it a knife? Nice material

[Broken Arrow]

I'd call it a knife..possibly a small preform

[ILLannoyReb]

A knife makes sense, I just knew it wasn't natural. No idea on chert type here.

Surface hunted plummets found after tropical storms or hurricanes and two points found after hurricane. All Tampa Bay

[ILLannoyReb]

Wow...that one looks like a plumb bob.

Nice finds Tom - I used to live on Anna Maria Island: this was about 10 yrs. before the collapse of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. I walked those beaches every morning at first light, but nary a sign of any artifacts! What's the wider plummet made of - seems fine grained.

Bulbous one is limerock

Nice finds ..makes me wanna go to our shoreline..bout ten miles away .. I mainly do a big river near me it's tidal

[SurfaceHunter]

Wanting to go myself but have to go to work instead. Rain starts tonight they say 6 inches this week. It will be a while before I can get out. Keep posting them great finds

Found this drill this year not much and has been well used

[redrocks]

That's a cool piece

[redrocks]

Found these two this afternoon down the river...last Artie's of 2018 ...yippee

[SurfaceHunter]

Dangit those are cool finds Red. I wanted to post a Big Sandy I had found but the pic was to large so I went with the drill.

[redrocks]

Thanks Glen. To many folks they're so-so .but I like em .. when i walk up and see the notches in a known fishing camp down the river.. it's a score man

[SurfaceHunter]

Going to try and post a couple of instu pics if they will load both finds in 2018

[SurfaceHunter]

Do you see the 1st one? Hard to see blends in

[redrocks]

Ya I see it. Not easy but I see it

[SurfaceHunter]

The Black and Tan one could be a spike or a drill. Some spikes do look like dream drills

[SurfaceHunter]

I think I will have to get closer when taking the pics for now on some don’t load

[SurfaceHunter]

Someone wanted to see some Divot Stones that I find. These have digits on each fave usually but not always. Most believe these stones were a multi use tool for Hammer, Grinders, Anvils or Nutters. I believe the ones I find are used for all of the terms. Say they use it for grinding for a while then need a hammer or anything else they just used the same rock till it wasnt usable and started over or changed it to what they needed. I have given some of these away and have found others and given them away to the owners. Its the deal you make when you get permission most have grand kids so what can you do but share to keep the look alive make them happy. All N GA personal and surface finds.

[redrocks]

Hey Glen looks like you have many many of these divot stones..they're cool. I'd have a hard time identifying them though

[SurfaceHunter]

Could be cap stones to I forgot that one. Maybe the single digit like the 2nd to last one it’s a dense quartzite and very heavy. I still have that one in my collection

[Kentucky point]

While not found all this year, these are things that my dad and I have found and bought over the years. From a killer Ohio river celt, to a US boxplate buckle, to a Georgia Dart point, to a Kentucky Hopewell, we did good. We are very thankful for what we have found.

I would say the top five greatest finds, from greatest, to least:

CS Staff officers button, super rare.
Hopewell, found in Kentucky, made from Flint Ridge chert.
Ohio River Celt made from a large river rock.
US Boxplate.
Georgia dart point.

[SurfaceHunter]

That’s a nice looking display rite there!!! I need to swing my MD seeing I can’t find a point now until something dries out. Big like on them buckles some can be worth a lot.

[Kentucky point]

A good place to swing a detector is at DIV (Diggin' In Virginia).

[redrocks]

Very nice collection KP.. Rock /metal combo. Both good hobbies
