Hello List AND Art!!,

The M-List Archives has lost all of its posts prior to
today (AGAIN, Art) and since I'm not subscribed and
only read the messages from Archives, I now have no
idea if this thread has had any recent posts.

Also, I just found a typo in my current NV Meteorite
PUZZLE auction - it's not "380 grams" !?
That was the weight of the previously auctioned puzzle
meteorite.

This latest one is much smaller (and more
affordable;).
The title should have read "29.5 grams"!!

Hopefully, this lil' pocket puzzle won't get cut up.

If you missed it before, see it here:

I guess it is yours to do with as you wish--- but it
is a terrible shame to sell it off in pieces when it's
most wonderful feature is the way it goes back
together! For classification I could perhaps see
sending a corner piece-- but to sell off a miracle
meteorite in pieces seems cruel and unusual punishment
for a rare piece.

Meteorite Recovery Team from California.That includes
Mr.Bob Verish.I recently won an auction from him for a
"puzzle" NEVADA meteorite which was found by a member
of that great team.It is 380 grams of a complete stone
in 14 pieces. For a collecter of NEVADA meteorites, to
me this is absolutly unbelieveable.The
>main mass is 203 grams alone.But for me the good news
is I am going to get it classified.I am going to send
a piece off to get classified.And I was told that I
might have a partial classification before tucson so I
will be able to let you in on the results.Also next
weekend I am going to up 2 pieces up for auction on
ebay and see how the do.The rest will stay in my
>collection.This is great news for me.Again thaks to
the meteorite recovery team for finding this beauty.
