Hi Eric, "A+ a very nice example of highy weathered chondrite with caliche and fractures." Perfect!!
You just gotta love those ugly ducklings! Thanks again for the purchase, glad they are making their way to good homes where they will be loved regardless of their "non-model" appearance.

I am the proud owner of the World's Ugliest Halloween Meteorite lot from Greg. I would second's Greg's opinion that these things are mighty ugly. However, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Here is some feedback from one person that I sold one of the specimens to: "A+ a very nice example of highy weathered chondrite with caliche and fractures." The specimens from that lot have also wowed the kids I coach (although more "traditional" iron meteroites are a bigger hit). Thanks!

There are "ugly" meteorites! In fact, last Halloween I offered and sold "The World's Ugliest Halloween Meteorite". It went for an "excellent" price to a new "proud" owner. It was a "fine" mix of "unbelievable" Orange and Black colors and many broken fragments. It was truly "ugly", but I am still "proud" to have discovered it with a batch of other chondrites. It is said the ugly is only skin deep, but I believe that one was ugly all the way through ;-) Best regards, Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
