Hello Ken, All, That looks nothing like a fresh iron meteorite. Fusion crust? That looks more like rust, and nevermind those shallow indentations that are being called regmaglypts - if you want to see what a fresh iron looks like, take out a Sikhote or Taza - or draw up some pics of any other falls around in museums. The jagged edges as well...come on - you'd only get those with a multiple-fall, and in order for one of those, you'd need a sizable fireball to accompany its entry. This one looks like a rusty piece of crap - much worse than the NJ object, and that one was complete rubbish to start out with. Regards, Jason
