Mike,
 Those are pretty amazing pictures of the house hammer meteorite. I'm
assuming that it also broke through the plywood that was under the roofing
shingles. It's amazing that it kept it's shape so well. Is that gypsum on
one end of it? Are you going to leave it like that or clean it off?
Congratulations on such a great find. By the way, if this is not the best
piece in your collection, what is? Take care. - Carl
