Always wanted to try a yeard… should I?
This is roughly 7 weeks of growth. Only trimming the neck and cheek line. I love the idea of a long beard, but I’m not sure if I should try it.

Please help me narrow down what kind of point this is and an age range! I found it west of St. Louis Missouri, about 30 miles west. I’m guessing Burlington chert. It’s right around 3 inches long, 1.25 inches wide. There is one notch, but the other side isn’t broken. It was made that way, or reshaped.
I can’t tell. I’m pretty sure it’s just another rock, maybe worked… not sure.
I found both of these within 30 feet of two points.
#1 is exactly 6 inches long and flattened on either end like a flathead screwdriver.
#2 is ground to a point and 4.1 inches long
Are these artifacts?
I live around St. Louis (within 50 miles) I’ve been looking for artifacts for about a month now and I found a real beauty. I also found this broken point. It’s broken on the top, bottom, and side…. I can’t imagine how beautiful it would have been.
