Mike,

That was my first thought, that it was a cleaned up Nantan.

There just isn't the fresh look that other Iron falls have.

I am curious, it is physically possible for a meteorite to enter our
atmosphere so slow that it would fall without burning, no fireball, no melting of
the surface of the rock?

Of course, in the NJ case, I doubt it would fall so slow that it would pick
up rust on the way down.

It doesnt matter, because the only way that is a
meteorite is that it is a Nantan and the owner is
pulling a scam. Otherwise, this is not a meteorite.
Iron meteorites do not enter the atmosphere covered in
rust.
