Mine is the same style, socketed vs a tang end. There are some copper culture experts that post on these forums, they said the age of this kind of spear point is in the 4000-6000 range.

Good find. You can find a nice show on the copper mine in that area on an episode of "America Unearthed" (H2 network) called "Great American Copper Heist". It shows evidence that copper has been mined in that area for over 4000 years.
