Well, Matt, I understand that there have been SOME larger pieces, that's why I chose the word "virually" when referring to the crumb-sized pieces. I'm not particularly looking for a larger piece of New Orleans, I was just expressing curiosity at its evolution, from fall to collector market.

Let me try it again. How about this: "Compared to other recent, similar-TKW falls, it seems like a much higher percentage of the material available to collectors is crumb-sized". OK?

Seems to me that virtually all of the New Orleans meteorite to reach the collector market has been in almost indentical, crumb-sized pieces. Anyone know why this is so?
