Hello Everyone,
I don't like the idea of marking in any way a meteorite specimen.
Over the years, I have bought planetary specimens from Jim Strope and I
think Jim has a great way of producing an adequate paper record of a
specimen. Jim scans the specimen and prints a COA with the scanned ima

Hi Jim and List,
I used a Dremel tool to carefully carve and identification number into
all of my specimens. I put the name of the specimen, date, origin,
type, what I paid for
and should be avoided.
Best!

Hi Jim and List,
I used a Dremel tool to carefully carve and identification number into
all of my specimens. I put the name of the specimen, date, origin,
type, what I paid for it, catalogue number, and 5 things I like about
it using only adjectives. All of this information is carved in

Hi everyone,
Thought I'd throw in my two cents on this interesting topic. First, painting
numbers on a meteorite for identification purposes is only good if you have a
master sheet that translates that number into a specific meteorite. If that
sheet is lost the painted number is useless.
I pr
as needed.

away from directly labelling my stones unless they are NWA or

Thanks! Nice display and probably a good conversation room.

I have a modest collection of fresh fall individuals that i have been keeping

This strategy has worked for me while my collection was under 50 locations.
