  • Need help with point type!

    I found this point back in spring of 2020 along a gravel bar after the creek came up. I’m located in S.W. Missouri. I would love to hear everyone’s thoughts about it. I’ve thought maybe a Dalton Hemphill but I’m also leaning towards a smoker rice lobed. Killer point regardless, not to mention the awesome fossils that came with it! Let me know what you think this point type is, possible even a type I’ve overlooked. ( left hand bevel and base is ground).

      Congrats on that sweet find.
      total killer.
      it’s old, and looks dalton related to me……👍👍
      two thumbs up on that one.

        Looks like a Hemphill to me.

        I think the flaking would be better had the stone permitted, but then it wouldn’t be as cool as it is.

        absolutely love it.👍👍👍

            Very nice and I like your call on Rice Lobed.

              Do you think? I am very torn now. Your opinion holds a lot of sway with me….

            Super nice piece Austin. I was surprised when you said you were in MO. Figured with a name like Austin you were in the Lone Star State!

                  Definitely a nice Rice . One of my favorites. The base throws a lot of people off as they vary from barely concave to deep like yours. The beveling and flaking are a dead giveaway. Those that look like yours get mistaken for Jakie points, but those aren't beveled. Probably Boone Chert.
