~ Rattle Snake Coral ~ Hillsborough Dart Point ~
Length: 2"
Grade: 9
Description: What a beautiful piece of gem stone Coral! Both sides of this translucent Hillsborough are literally covered in 'Star Burst' Coral Polyps. This point has been rebased. A common way the natives repurposed damaged points. When a long spear point broke, they simply made a smaller Dart Point from the tip. The base was snapped, indicating that this point was once the tip of a much larger spear.
Provenance: Found on private property with permission in Hillsborough Co. Florida.
