Cant confirm or deny but what I can say is that is a nice grab that has had 2ndary work to it. Still looks sharp also. Nice artifact regardless of its intent...ancient human hands touched it...great find...The chase is better than the catch...

Really nice. Crescent-like, but maybe not realized enough to name it so. I've never found or even seen (outside of books) a western paleo crescent so not sure the parameters of their form, but you are in the right zone, it is the right material and it's got a distinct bend. Like it plenty.California

smbore, Where found? Paleo camp, dry lake, etc might hint on it a little more. Like others have stated above, its has a decent Crescent shape but its not a true bifacial Crescent. That's not to say if found on a Paleo camp it might have been used in the same manner as a Crescent. Though it looks more like a tool/scraper to me too.
