Hola Jason. Thanks for your reply and pictures. The stone in the first picture, is what we are talking about : flat shaped meteorites....and we second you in that < irons appear to withstand the stresses of entry much better>...so... to have in our hands...a very small flat stone individual....is really a miracle...due to its more difficult chances to get that shape and survive the fierceness of ablation. As soon as we can , will take a picture of our very little flat stone....perhaps a not seldom seen... very, very flatened meteorite.
 
Hasta la vista,
 
larense

How is the flatest, complete ( or almost complete ) crusted ( or sand blasted ) meteorite individual that any of this list fanaticos.....have ever had in their hands ?....We know the many odd shapes meteorites have....hearted, with holes, and many more.....any reply with a picture, is welcome.....it is really amazing that a money coin shaped meteorite, could be found...due to the ablation process.
