Ty all for the tips and help im up to 90% sure its a trade point . but not going to say it is for sure . more diigging it to books and going to revisit the spot i got it , and hunt iron , to see if a find anything that would support the find.

Some corroded and rotten copper points will not look much like copper, but are still copper. I'm unable to make out what you took a picture of, your pic is to small, dark and blurry. BK

I've seen a few made of iron; they were much longer than yours. (4 to 5 inches long)

It was surmised that they were made from the iron rim of a wagon wheel.
