It is a highly shocked eucrite that was first thought to be paired to a known lunar meteorite and even looked lunar once cut and the slices held next to two other known lunar meteorite samples. It has clearish "crystals" popping out of the exterior, along with whitish clasts to really fool the eye into thinking it "has" to be lunar. I should name NWA 4883 "The Chameleon" because of the way it seems to mimic the characteristics of true lunars! Here are links to photos of two different NWA 4883 slices: #1 http://www.lunarrock.com/nwa4883/dsc00004.jpg #2 http://www.lunarrock.com/nwa4883/dsc00015.jpg I have loaded all that there is available of NWA 4883 on eBay late last night, most with "Buy it Now". This one won't last because of its beauty and odd classification. Here is a direct link to just the NWA 4883 eBay auctions: http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=%22nwa+4883%22 In addition to this very special offering, I have many other auctions ending later this afternoon and can be seen at this link along with "The Chameleon": http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZnaturesvault There are too many excellent auctions to highlight here, but it is worth your time to check them out and pick up a great deal on a rare meteorite or even 1-kilo or 500-gram lots! Best regards and "Thank You" for looking at and/or bidding on my auctions. Happy Holidays!
