Its a Lunar NWA 4472 and I think I located the Nakhla

Its a Lunar NWA 3160 oops....... I think they are all mixed up I hope thats just on the image side and not with the meteorites they are auctioning off.

Hello Listers

In NYC on May 17th 2011 Bohams is having a Natural History auction and there are some nice meteorites up for auction. However, I was viewing the LOTS and I noticed that a 5.6g Zagami slice does not look like a Zagami from what I have seen and what I have owned. Here is a link to that lot
http://www.bonhams.com/eur/auction/19371/lot/3168/ take a look and see if you agree with me or not. Also, I noticed other LOTS where the images do not match up with what they are auctioning off.

Nakhla

Here is a Nakhla image from the Smithsonian

Dar al Gani 400

The matrix is darker then what I have seen. From what I can tell, it should be a neutral gray and white clasts.

Now I am not sure if I am correct or incorrect but I am wondering if they have mixed up the images of the LOTS or I am blind. But at any rate, take a look and see what I mean by some of the LOTS.
