Greetings,

Some of you may remember a while back that Joe Kerchner found some 
interesting looking specimens while out meteorite hunting. I was 
involved in helping him get the specimens to a researcher who has 
determined they are a good meteorwrong but not a meteorite.

Many may remember a number of meteorwrongs we have come a cross in the 
past like some of the Russian specimens that turned out to be a 
terrestrial basalt with nickel in it. I feel that Joe's specimens are 
an excellent meteorwrong and have added a sample to my collection. I 
thought others might want to contact him and add some also. He is 
offering some of this material up for sale. I have added a link so you 
can visit his site and consider some of this material or simply look at 
it.

You can also contact him here directly. Have fun!

Not too often you come across material that looks so promising like Joe 
did but still turns out to not be the real McCoy. This is the sort of 
item that is fun to add to a collection. All my best!
