Slice was sold, maybe happy buyer is on the list and can check this for You.
For me, the dark area on top is low nickel or even no nickel iron becouse it goes dark imediatelly I start etch it. Like in industry iron. But the silver bottom part I think its not melted nickel plates/fragments, becouse they stay mirror polished and not react with 20% etching solition. For me its the only reason why acid do nothing to them. But I can be wrong.
I personally do not make nickel tests, I just etch and see what happend.

Hi Marcin,

Thanks for the photo post of the Shiro slice. Did anyone nickel test this piece? If so, what happened?

Hi
I tryed this but iron go dark like on this slice. I did not try to etch any
other "typical 50/50" Shiro. I choose this one only becouse it have extra
ammount of iron and I expected to see something, but I only found a clear
proof that Shiro is a fake. But who cares :) I like this stuff, its funny.

Hello list.

I am going to buy a piece of this meteor-wrong, but was wondering if
anyone had tried to etch it, and if so, what was the result?

Cheers!
