[meteorite-list] Does anyone recognize this specimen?

[Bigjohn Shea]

Mendy,
I'm not going to comment on whether I think it is or is not a meteorite.  There are professionals working on it and they will better determine that than these photos alone will.
But, I appreciate your insights as usual.
Hope business is going good.  :-)
Cheers,
John
