Title: Hillsborough
Post by: leapingbare on July 12, 2010, 05:27:08 pm

Some of yall might have seen this on Paleoplanet or flintknappers.com, I have to wait till I'm at work to compress the photos to post them here.
3 1/2 inches long and 2 inches wide at the wings.
This is agatized coral from FL. This was made from a spall from the outside of the coral head, just like most of the artifact were, notice there is some crust left on it. If you look close you can see all the polops in it.

 I'll tell you again, that sure is a nice one. That coral look's like it took the heat treating real good.
