I wish I had a photo...dug up a quarter today by a trail and found a nice indian arrowhead.
Love this hobby !

I used to hunt for them exclusively about 15 years ago. Now kids and work, and detecting of course, take up most of my time.
 
I've never found an arrowhead while detecting but I found a stone scraper, kind of half moon shaped to fit the hand with a very sharp curved edge on it.

I found one several years ago.. It was the hole, I dug, on top of a sliver Washington quarter. I figured a kid had lost them at the same time(since the Indian rock was on top of the quarter) while he or she was playing with them.
 
Great find, I found this one 2yrs. ago. It's a copper arrow head or small spear head from the Archiac Age 3000-5000 years old
 
I never have yet.. It could happen some day though. I've got land in the OK Choctaw Indian Nation.
But I don't know if that many people actually hunted on that land back in the day.. They were in
the area, but there are so many acres of Forest, and less people back then, so it's quite possible
no one hunted there much back then. But I keep an eye out. My mother grew up on a farm in OK back
in the 30's,40's.. They had 105 acres, and when they plowed they dug up loads of them.
She said they used to have coffee cans full of them in the barn.. But she doesn't know what
happened to them all. Probably one of her many brothers got em when they moved off the place. :razz:
That was in the Ada area, so I think that would be the Chickasaw nation. My place is kinda close
to three different nations.. I'm about 2 miles south of the Canadian, so I'm in the Choctaw nation.
But the Creek nation is on the other side of the river, and the SW corner of the Cherokee nation is
a bit to the NE a few miles.
Up there, they have both semi modern 1800's arrowheads, but also ancient models hundreds of
years old from the Indians that lived there way,way,way back..
 
I have quite a few. around 70. The area I detect also is loaded with indian artifacts. Here is one of latest finds
 
To date i have around 500 not counting stone axes,and tools. I find them on occasion while MD but ground is loaded with them here.
 
When I was a kid we used to go to my great grandmothers house to visit. There used to be a field behind her house that we used to able to go out to and find arrowheads. I think I may still have a few of the arrowheads I found out of that field. That was 45 to 50 years ago. Since then that area has been a farm, county fair grounds and now it is a subdivision. Oh how times have changed...............

dave like that black knife

Thank you. I found it sticking out of a riverbank one day while fishing. I'm pretty sure it's a preform/knife. Here is a picture giving you it's size..
 
Arrowheads are every where the older points are deep in the ground I found a nice marshal point 8' deep
