Cooper Co., MO
  period. This one is in great shape and     
  has basal grinding along with heavy duty

  flakes leading from the base on side B    
strongly resemble fluting technology. It
appears to have a very thin, clear coating of
varnish, which was a common practice
during the 1940's and 1950's when
mounting arrowheads for display. (This is 
easily removed with a gentle dip in Acetone) Ex: Jack Roberts
