If you recall, there were two grave yard stones, One damn stone, one barn stone and one house stone. ( The barn stone was coupled with the stone that fell at the feet of the barn owner who at first thought his girlfriend Was teasing him by tossing a rock near him - The two stones Which together totaled about 51grams, sold in an ad hoc auction by phone. The Winning bidder paid $4,600 for the two. The seller Would not sell either separately). While I certainly would love to keep this entire house hitter, My finances demand I sell it. I could make more cutting it up, but it is one of the more impressive specimens I have seen and Will be heartbroken if I have to "slice and dice" this beauty. Note The embedded grit of the roof shingle on the "face" of the stone. It is 124 gr. See it here from 4 different angles: http://michaelbloodmeteorites.com/Conglomerate.jpg Serious offers only, please. Off line, of course. Best wishes, Michael Received on Wed 30 Dec 2009 08:13:15 PM PST |
