    Hi Glenn. I've already told you what it is. It is not a Dalton and not Paleo and is most likely a Copena. I've already discussed this with you in detail. Asking someone. to be 100% positive about a triangular/lanceolate point with a biconvex cross section and not having it in hand is an unreasonable expectation for the point you are showing.

    I recently took this down due to nobody really knowing what it is. But I’m putting it back up cause nobody knows what it is 100%. Click image for larger version

    Some dandy drills but I don't see any Dalton or Paleo here unless you are calling them Dalton drills.

    That is a real beauty. It looks like it was used as a dart point but I don't recognize the type..What are you calling it?

    It is a super dandy beautiful point but It's not a Dalton and does not look Paleo to me although the transverse flaking on this side makes it look like a really old type. What type are you calling it? I don't know where your hunting grounds are located but if I found it on my old hunting grounds I would probably call it a Benton, a Middle Archaic type.

    The two lower points are super dandies and look Paleo to me. I don't recognize the top 2. What type are they and what area of the country are your hunting grounds located.

    Hard to post these after Gar but here are a couple of Eastern Daltons I’ve found over the years. One on the right would of been really nice if whole. Found both halves in a field on 2 different trips Click image for larger version
