I agree. Any chips that are deep enough to show matrix should be listed, at best, as 99%, and drop in value from there. Like so many other terms in the business of meteorites ( e.g. fusion crust, oriented ) the claim of 100% crusted if often misused.

Best,
John

Subject: [meteorite-list] A question about crust.


List members,
I notice that some sellers list a meteorite as 100%
crusted if it apparently had 100% crust during flight
but  now has several chips of crust missing.  My
feeling has always been that 100% crust should signify
that it is totally crusted with none missing.  Can we
get a consensus of what constitutes 100% crust?
Thanks,
Thomas
