This slice of the Seymchan siderite meteorite measures 171 by 80mm. The slice has one natural edge and stands up proudly for display if you put a small, strong magnet a mm or two from the bottom edge on the back side of the slice. The etch is perfect with strong Neumann lines in the coarse bands and a Widmanstatten that looks 3 dimensional with different band groups jumping out at you depending on the angle the slice is held with respect to the light.

A few notes about my auctions: I ship from both the US via a friend in the states and the UK. I am currently listing a number of large, spectacular specimens that are the result of a months long project to correct the cut faces of a number of large important meteorites for a private collector.
