Hi List. Just sent this Seller asking if any of their items come with a COA + Provenance + ID card and if they guarantee authenticity.. If the Seller says no Provenance, COA or ID card I will pressure them on how they can sell without these important documents. Will keep all of you posted.

The brecciation with light colored clasts is consistent with Ourique, but without provenance it is difficult to substantiate. Same for Chaves, there are many NWAs that have similar characteristics. gary On Feb 10, 2014, at 9:30 AM, Don Merchant dmerc...@rochester.rr.com wrote: Hi List. Just
