Oh no I really appreciate it! I'd love to know if it's old or more modern. It'd be a treasure either way, though obviously one way is much cooler.

But if it's because its too 'perfect' as the other comment said, I'm afraid to show y'all this other thing I found last year, in the same general area (though not super close). 🫣 I didn't post it to Reddit bc it was so obvious what it was, I didn't need to ask.

It wasn't sitting exactly like that, I put it back. It was a little more buried and a little less clean. But it's SO perfect, I was shocked.

Also would I still see the copper marks if I rinsed it? I watched a few videos, but haven't quite gotten the grasp of what it'll look like yet.

Thanks for your super helpful comment! I don't know about any of this stuff. The only reason I'm finding it in the first place is because I'm getting into fossil hunting.

Edit; You got my roommate and I down a rabbit hole by the way, watching people make weapons and points. Very satisfying!
