I was wondering if a meteorite would be more desirable if it was used as a

irons, but I'm talking more like an irons being used for some purpose: perhaps
a hammer for pounding. I cannot think of any other

Hey Greg S.,
The Tucson Ring was used as an anvil. There was a somewhat small iron at the
Tucson Show that was used to pound in tent stakes, that was bought from a
Moroccan dealer. I think the value would go up because the items were used
by prehistoric man as a tool.
Best regards,

Martin Horejsi coined the term Tool box meteorite. I think he wrote an
article on the idea and there were many more uses than I would of thought
of. He had a huge slice of a meteorite that was used as a wheel chock to
keep a wagon or cart from moving on a hill.

I believe the ancient Egyptians used meteorite iron for some ritual tools?
Also I think Eskimos used iron pieces from some huge meteorites up in the
arctic for various tools...mainly for knives and spears.

hi greg
spear points, daggers, fish hooks and awls have been documented and
such products are worth a great deal.
also consider the Inuit relied on cape york specimens as their sole
source of iron until adm peary's swap meets.

Hi Greg,
Very nice specimen. It was obviously used as a tool. :)
Now this has me wondering - could tool markings be faked to increase
the value of a specimen? Is there any definitive way to test tool
markings to see how old they are?
