  • Recent finds from SE Massachusetts and Rhode Island

    I haven't been getting out much lately, but I've managed a few lucky finds. A while back I found three small quartz points from a pond site that I get to search when the water is low. I'm pretty happy with the small rossville, this is a type I rarely come across, and it's a nice one. Just last weekend I got out with Metacom and found a broken quartz triangle and a ryolite point that I believe to be either a fox creek or a greene. Either way, it's another type I seldom find, and I'll happily add it to my collection.

    Nice. Yeah, I would go with Greene on the rhyolite point. That type has never showed up much on the sites I walked, either.

      I like your call on this one, I have one other points that I think might be a greene that I found 4 years ago on a reservior. I'll see if I can dig it out and get some pictures up.

      Nice rhyolite point!! It's rare to find rhyolite too often! Seems you and metacom have found a nice site!

        Thanks pointhead, Mark was telling me he bumped into you recently. We should all get together for a hunt sometime.

      Hi SH. Nice points you found. Good eyes you have for sure. I probably would have missed them.

        Charlie, the point on the right is the one I mentioned in my comment to your post. I remember thinking at the time that it was a greene. Looking at it now, next to the newly found one, I'm sure that it's the same type. I found it about 4 years ago at a reservior in Massachusetts.

        Thanks for your insight.

                  Nice to see you posting something, you should do it more often. You have some great finds that deserve to be seen, enough for many many threads lol.

                  Two awesome examples of that style there... Your luck is pretty uncanny.
