Dear List,

This is just a quick reminder for those of you who may be interested in very
collectable specimens from the Haag Collection. These auctions and several
nice cherry picked meteorites are due to end in just a couple of hours. The
price per gram on these specimens is less than what recent NWA falls have
been trading for!

Here are some examples of incredibly collectable meteorites:

575 gram Beaver Oklahoma Famous Jailhouse Meteorite complete slice from the
Robert A. Haag Collection featured in catalog on page 96. I am starting
this world famous meteorite out at just $4.00 a gram with a low buy-it-now
price of just $4.35 a gram, less than half the asking price you will find
elsewhere.

801 gram Harrisonville Missouri meteorite from Haag Collection featured in
catalog on page 101. I thought this might be the main mass when I purchased
it and found out that more than likely it is not. When I posed this
question to the List several responded that they were interested in this
specimen so I decided the only fair way to offer it was put it up for
auction. I mostly collect main masses and rare types so I decided to let
this awesome specimen go. If nobody else bids somebody is going to steal it
at $2.00 a gram.

263-gram part end-cut of Nadiabondi, an H5, S2, W0 chondrite that fell July
27th, 1957 in Burkino Faso. It is featured on page 110 of The Robert Haag
Collection of Meteorites making its provenance second to none. Comes with a
hand signed ID card from Robert A. Haag. Previous provenance MNHN trade.
Start priced at just $2.85 a gram. This is cheaper than you can buy a
recent African fall for and its provenance is excellent!

978-gram block cut of Tserev, an L5, S3, W1 chondrite said to have fallen
December 6th 1922 in the Volgograd region of Russia. This particular
specimen was found sometime after 1968. It is featured on page 96 of The
Robert Haag Collection of Meteorites making its provenance second to none.
Comes with a hand signed ID card from Robert A. Haag. Priced at just $1.43
a gram for a fall!
