Hi Count!

Congrats on your new cold find! I will echo others' comments
that this was the first I'd heard or seen of it. Did you
ever post this to the Met-List before, or just to a limited
subset?

In either case, I must say that I agree that this is one of
those finds that photography does not do it justice: no
substitute for seeing it first hand with a hand lens or
microscope. Kudos for following through in the face of any
discouragement you may have received from others.

I'm curious about the classification; presumably just a
typo on your part:

No such thing as a weathering grade of W01/.1. Did you mean
W0/1? The shock stage is also a bit unusual; I've seen S3-4
and S3-5, but never S3/5.

Best wishes,
Rob
