Well, to split hairs with you Martin, those are reports lacking physical
confirmation.

Similar to a dog in Egypt I once read about.

Hi Rob,

you write there: "Only confirmed meteorite to ever hit a person".

That is unfair against this boy:
ftp://ftp.strw.leidenuniv.nl/pub/betlem/meteorites/mbale_29.gif

Who helds here on the picture the Mbale-fragment, which hit his head.

And Oli Alge will gladly confirm you, that he visited and spoke in person
with the fisherman, who was hit by stones from the Chiang Khan shower in his
boat on the Mekong.

Btw. I still have here from my personal collection a 10g+ individual, fully
crusted and oriented and much fresher than e.g. that Chiang Khan in Allan
Lang's online meteorite museum
(btw great pictures!)
http://www.nyrockman.com/museum-3.htm

which I'm willing to sell at a less optimistic price,
let's say 500 bucks, free ship.

Two crusted fragments of 25grams are left too, where the whole buying price
will be used for Oli's help project in the strewnfield to. Price 33$/g.

Buckleboo!
Martin

Oops, yes it was an AD, but since weeks I didn't post any.

Hello all

You read it right. I have one thin partslice of one of this EXCEEDINGLY
DIFFICULT to obtain meteorite. I would use the word impossible but then I
wouldn't have a piece to offer.

This is a top ten wish-lister for any institution or advanced collector.

One shot deal, highest offer in the $3000 range (or first to go $3500) gets
to add this to their collection, otherwise it stays in mine.

It needs no introduction

If $3000 is out of your budget, I have some auctions ending later today,
fresh crusty little stones.

Have a good one,
