Hi,  I was thinking some of you might know  what this is.  I bought it off 
eBay just this last week.   250342026204  It was sold as a meteorite and while 
I 
had my doubts, my  curiosity was tweaked.


The photos are quite good and they speak for  themselves.  My observation is, 
it is not iron!  While it is highly  attracted to a magnet (nearly like 
iron), it is brittle and not malleable.   It is crystal structured and there is 
a 
section of fine grid shaped  crystals.

The crusted ends look like they COULD be sand blasted  thumbprints but also 
look as if they could of been formed by molten material  dropped on sand. 

If you have seen this stuff before, please share with  me.  Is it a nice 
example of a natural crystal or is it industrial  scrap?

Thanks!  Tom Phillips
