The Found Dutchman Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 That is a nice looking meteorite. The price has come down considerably since the initial fall when someone was asking $1000.00 per gram and perhaps getting it. No doubt more to be found. What an adventure that must be for the guys that went over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
