Alfredo,
I would agree that what the article stated was slightly misleading, but this is not the same meteorite as the one that is mentioned to have fallen 100 years before. They were just including that bit of information in the story as a nidus for the owner's interest in getting the specimen looked at by institutions.
Cheers,
John

One hundred years laying outdoors in that humid climate and it's still "black and gleaming"? Wouldn't it have rusted?
