[meteorite-list] Black Beauty on the open market?

[Shawn Alan]

Hello Listers

I agree it is nice meteorite and could see the value being around Nakhla too. But in the name of science I guess they can argue its that much or more. But at the end of the day I hope some will come to light in the open market so everyone can enjoy a piece of science .

It is nice, but I don't see why it would be much more valuable than say Nakhla or Shergotty.
