Hello Anne and List,

Precise information about the exact bandwidth of the Widmanstaetten lamellae
would be extremely helpful. Assuming the "face of the picture" *is* 7 cm long,
the width of the lamellae might be about 1.7 mm. If it is from an old collection,
it may even be a piece of an historical iron called "Paneth's Iron", a coarse
octahedrite (1.5? 0.3 mm). Wow, that would be something! But first of all, it
is crucial to know as exactly as measurable the width of the Widmanstaetten
pattern.

Best wishes,

Bernd
