Thank you all for the nice comments.
And Wayward, you are right about kids, I live in central WV and my wife was born and raised here also and she tells me that when she was growing up they would find arrowheads and flints “by the hand full” in the plowed garden and fields, especially after a rainfall.
And Mr.Curiosity, that is anodized steel wire so I’m hoping it won’t be a problem. And that’s about the same as what I told the wife when she “questioned”
why I was wasting my time making that case. I told her that when I die and she auctions off all my goodies she’s going to be mighty surprised at just how high the bidding will go for it.
And Regularjoe, I was also thinking the small tapered stone may have been part of a 'mortar & pestle' or for the end of a drumstick. And it was probably more like a “miracle” the way I got that spear-point with "my very own hands". I was using my little 1010 JD dozer to fix up some tractor/jeep roads on my “back 40” and being low on gas decided to head back to the barn. I took a short-cut across the cow pasture which was full of those “humpies” so I just lowered the blade to about 1” of the ground and cut/flattened them out in front of me, effective making another smooth tractor road. T’was a few weeks later I was out walking the “back 40” and came back that way and right in the exact center of where I pushed through one of those “humpies” laid that spear-point, flat & flush even with the top of the “cut”. If that dozer blade had been 1” higher or ¼ inch lower then that spear-point would still be a lost artifact.
The absolute truth is, I walked past it about 5 feet, stopped dead in my tracks, was absolutely sure I had just seen an hallucination and was afraid to look back to see if it was really lying there. Now talk about a “rush of adrenalin” as I lifted it up out of its resting place unbroken.
