MHPA105 A paper-thin blue-gray Georgetown flint Folsom   Found in Lynn Co., TX 700.00
showing a single flute to each face, but with side by David "JJ" Burrow
B's flute somewhat diminished by secondary
pressure flaking (re-sharpening) at the top right
corner of the flute. The micro-edgework is 
good, but not as consistent on side B as it is on
side A. The tip was anciently re-worked after  Ex: Dowell
having been wounded in action. Just a neat little Ex: Lewis
scarce point, published in Prehistoric American Ex: M. Hough
Vol. XLI - No. 4, page 44 Jackson COA

Item: Type: Provenance: Price
DOPA1 A very nice pinkish gray-brown chert Midwestern area 1,100.00
Clovis having a single flute to side A
  and a slight hafting stop to side B,    
  slightly offset to the right (see photo 4)        
  flaking is fairly thorough on both sides,    
  although side A does have a slight "dip"    
  near the tip (see photo 2) It has nice    
  grinding to the cutting edges at the base,    
  but it has no grinding to the concave basal    
  and this section appears to have sustained    
  ancient damage which was never re-    
  worked, as it is a bit ragged and sharp.    
  Additionally, there is a subtle color change    
  to the host stone covering the entire tip    
  starting at the upper 1/3rd of the surface    
(see photo 4, horizontal brown line) Rogers COA

Item: Type: Provenance: Price
MHPA303 A very fascinating and colorful light orange Found in 200.00
and gray chert Folsom which appears to  New Mexico
  have been anciently worked-down quite a    
  bit as the double flutes' "real estate" has    
  been infringed upon substantially, although    
  obvious traces of both flutes still remain.    
  The secondary edgework is thorough,    
  although not of the micro-flaking variety.    
  The tip is gone and shows a narrow     
  channel from an impact fracture on side B.    
  Lastly, the tip of one tang is missing. (Like    
what else could go wrong !) Ex: Michael Hough

Item: Type: Provenance: Price

  What can I say about something that's mostly western Texas  
  not there ?... It has nice typical transverse    
  flaking patterns and micro-edgework to all 4       
  edges as a signature from a master knapper.

hoststone. Quite an exceptional piece
Please Note: The Jeb Taylor COA lists
this one as a silicified sand (Spanish

my experience Taylor COA
