A farm field found Turkey Tail from either Spencer or Dubois County, Indiana, deliberately left with the field dirt in place. A 'quick aside'--while driving back a long farm lane to the finders' home I came to the brick house: stacked on each window ledge were piles of hammerstones. It was too cold and windy to walk around the home, see what artifacts were in the flowerbeds, but one quick glance showed even more hammerstones--maybe a mortar...would have liked to have flipped that one over to see if it was cupped. The family didn't have many finds, or al least they didn't make it into the auction. This fossil-bearing form of hornstone is a 2&1/2" example, 1&1/8" wide, and a thick 1/2" medial ridge. ANYtime you see a medial ridge that thick you know the piece once was a much larger blade, worked shorter and more narrow through it's useful life. If you decide to wash it for your collection, that's fine, but here, you see the piece exactly as it was found. Shipping is $8.00, checks, cash, or M.O>s are the only ways I take payment. Sorry, that leaves out paypal-type payments--Roy A.
