SIKHOTE-ALIN - IRON IIAB, 5.6 kg

An exceptional Sikhote-Alin individual. This specimen shows oriented, elongated regmaglypts, (thumbprints) which formed during its descent through Earth's atmosphere. Intact fusion crust covers the surface in a beautiful matte grey color. Flow lines and lipping can be seen from where molten metal poured back from the wind and heat. Excellent, pristine condition specimen.
