Also, I noticed other LOTS where the images do not match up with what they are auctioning off. > > Nakhla > http://www.bonhams.com/eur/auction/19371/lot/3172/ > > Here is a Nakhla image from the Smithsonian > http://nhb-acsmith1.si.edu/emuwebmsweb/objects/common/webmedia.php?irn=1001071 > > Dar al Gani 400 > > http://www.bonhams.com/eur/auction/19371/lot/3177/ > > The matrix is darker then what I have seen.
