Nice Score from EBay today!!

I saw this one over the weekend and snatched it up for a song, got it in the mail today and it SURE looks good. I will be offering it for sale, but first I am sending it off for a COA (After having to refund $300 last month on points I really thought were good, I've decided that anything I'm gonna ask more than $75 for is going to get papered BEFORE I sell it!) But I am curious - what do you guys think on both authenticity and type? It's about 4 1/2" long and very thin for its size, with a heavily ground base. The seller was from Iowa, but he had traded for the point long ago and had no provenance on it.

No doubt that's good Indy, Thebes, probably from East Central region, judging from material.

I like it and the photo looks good...but I'm curious as to how a couple of posters have "no doubts?" I'm not a no doubt guy until I've seen it under 20-40x and then only if it's from my rather limited geographical area of knowledge. Hope the paper goes well 'cause it sure is pretty.
