    Description

    Specimen weight: 8.3g. It's a rare pallasite which is difficult to see on the market. It is compositionally distinct from pallasite main group members. This specimen was cut, polished, etched and stabilized by myself. The cut face has been coated with acrylic lacquer to prevent rusting-- this coating material is very light and doesn't increase the specimen's weight by over 2%!

    *** Warning about a scammer "
    jonamcda93" !!! ***
    This scammer's real name is
    Jonathan McDaniel
    supposedly living in San Pedro, CA. His age is about 20. He begged me to make deals in person because his budget was limited and he just began collecting meteorites for few months and wanted to check the items on hand. I was moved and brought him the meteorites he asked along with several gifts worth ~0. After checking, he asked to pay a portion of the payment monthly. He seemed sincere so I let him take the stones home. Afterward, he never pays off the bill. He owes me 0. I am a researcher. I don't sell meteorites for live. This loss isn't a big deal for me. However, I was pretty disappointed by being betrayed as I tried to treat a young and new collector sincerely and nicely. If this guy reaches out to you, please don't believe any words of him. Don't pass any stones before receiving the full payment.
