Today I went and walked the field that Sugaree and I usually hunt and found this gem laying on top of the ground as if sitting there for me to find! I'm thinking Morrow Mountain. Definitely a spear point. Then I found this glass disc. Very heavy, very solid. Any clues?

[Lindenmeier-Man]

Good salvage ! Nice.. The disc has me intrigued ... Could we get a few extra pics of both finds plz ?

[TxMailDude34]

The dings are from the plows. What other pics can I take of the point?

[Lindenmeier-Man]

I’m not sure that a glass coaster, how thick is the point ?

[Lindenmeier-Man]

Regardless of the point, I’d keep looking the area for the other lantern lens. If from RR lantern it could be red. Pre 30’s

Good Hunt TX!

[Sugaree]

Congratulations that's a beautiful Morrow Mountain hopefully more are just waiting for you to find! The glass disc is intriguing?

[TxMailDude34]

I just heard from another hunter on here that the glass disc could be a lantern lens pre 1930s.

[Sugaree]

Railroad lantern lens! Way cool find.

That field always turns up surprises. Remember the Italian coin? Lol

[Lindenmeier-Man]

Like to see the coin, I missed it somehow which is not out of the ordinary ....

[TxMailDude34]

Lindenmeier-Man...Sugaree found that. Check his posts. He and I usually go hunt and he found it while on a hunt. He always finds odd things lol.

Nice point. It does have a Morrow Mt. look about it. Probably used as a knife and not a spear.

You may be right. It's hard to know. I've heard that some spear points and knives could be used interchangeably.

Nice finds

I’d say a glass coaster and an exhausted knife blade, both cool finds

[SurfaceHunter]

I was thinking coaster to on it. Nice point

Wayne found something very similar to that in lithic and looks . Less a little base we were thinking vanishing base MM . What do you think of that call ?

That is very possible! You thinking knife or spear head?

A lantern lens??? I never thought of that! It was near the railroad where I found it in a field. The town where I hunt was the hub for lumber in the 1800s up to about the 1930s. Then Asheville became bigger and the lumber industry died around here.

Yes I’d be extremely happy about the lens, not taking away from the artifact of course. I like finding odd things !
