Just from my records of my collection, here are the most expensive $/gram:

Calcalong Creek $367,650 (M Casper source)
Mooresfort $48,475 (R Elliott source)
Chassigny $27,015 (M Blood source)
Lodran $25,500 (R Elliott source)
Lafayette $17,361 (M Blood source
Angra dos Reis $10,000
Glenrothes $10,000
Kobe $10,000
Govermador Valadares $9582
Wethersfield 1971? $8823
Pomozdino $8631
Forsbach $8333
Serra de Mage $7683
Darmstadt $7038
Peramiho $6733
Moore County $6463
LA 002 $6015
Wessely? $5813
Sylacauga $5572
Krahenberg? $4000

I didn't include the DAG/DHO/NWA etc because those prices have changed drastically over the years.

Overall my average $/g: Lunar $1554; Martian $1325.
