    It is a green hued broken worked piece. not sure if it broke and so they didnt finish or if it broke in the water. found it riverside southern ontario. it is my FIRST STONE arrowhead find!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im super excited and have barely put it down since finding it yesterday! it looks really dark in some lighting but its a green colour.

        I agree. Probably a scotty that was rode hard. Super cool.

          Looks like a graver spur on the right side of the top 2 pictures (left side of the bottom 2)

              Lol... Not a graver.

              Its a basally-notched point and that what's left after many resharpening(s) imo...​

                As Jon stated, that is not a spur. It is a classic characteristics of Scottsbluff though.
