If I were to sell any of my meteorites, I'd include whatever paperwork I got with them -- business card, invoice, anything else I had kept. There is virtually no chance any of my rocks would be sub-sectioned, since I have almost nothing larger than 5 grams, so you'd be likely to get all the original paperwork. When I display my slices and fragments, I like to put them in the 1" square gem jars with flocked foam insert; unless a suitable label is already attached, I have a Publisher program to generate label inserts with information on the specimen. I slip it into the back of the gem jar behind the foam, and voila! A display mounting, with accompanying data!
