[meteorite-list] Illinois find

[Jimski47 at aol.com]

Thank you to everyone that expressed there  opinion on my find. Opinions 
are about 60/40 in favor of it being a meteorite.  I've mailed a slice to the 
Field Museum in Chicago for evaluation. Should have  an answer in about six 
months.

Cheers,
Jim K

Hi Everyone,

I'd like to get your valued opinion on my latest  Illinois farm field find. 
 
The stone is 8.76g and appears to have  fusion crust, chondrules and metal  
flakes. Streak test leaves no  streak and it has a density of 3.59. The 
vugs 
have  me concerned.  Pictures are posted on the Meteorite Junction.
