[meteorite-list] AML Huss number mystery

I have an AML specimen that when I looked it up, the information on the card
did not relate to the information in the MetBul.

The card reads as follows:
Taiban (b), New Mexico
Olivine-hypersthene chondrite (L6)
Found 1975
TKW 11.5kg
Weight of specimen 6.8g
H327.93
The MetBul lists both Taiban and Taiban (b), but neither are an L6, nor
found in 1975, nor have a TKW of 11.5kg. How do I identify this specimen?
By the way, the painted number and card number do match.

Any help is appreciated.

Mendy
