Aid,

These look like nice meteorites and I don't doubt that these are 
genuine.  I do find it hard to believe that the small craters were 
formed from these stones.  The craters look dug and appear too large and 
deep for the little rocks your are displaying.

Am I missing something?

Best Regards,

Mike Tettenborn
