I think my favorite fact about this thing is that it weighs 1.5 Lbs but it feels "Much Heavier" lol.

If you end up putting it on eBay be sure to include that in the description.
 

yep, looks like rust, also looks like the surface was hit with a wire brush/wheel
 

DIAZ.....How much are you getting paid for each reply here? Just curious. I voted for mandrel

Believe it or not it is not rust !!!!!!

Let us know when you list it on eBay--I am determined to outbid Silver Searcher at whatever it takes--I just don't feel it's right that this piece end up in a British Museum somewhere (don't they already have enough stuff in their museums?!?!) with Silver Searcher laughing all the way to the bank. Let's keep it in the U.S of A.!!

THATS ONLY ABOUT 30 DOLLARS IN usa money no im cool on that i think ill just put it on ebay lol!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

I hope my post was not misleading. My post assumes the nickel/iron test was done to the INSIDE of the rock. The rarety of nickel/iron earth rocks is so rare, the test is used to confirm that a rock most likely came from space. Nickel plating is a man-made process not in question here. TTC
who said it was a rock? have you seen the pictures?
 

THATS ONLY ABOUT 30 DOLLARS IN usa money no im cool on that i think ill just put it on ebay lol!!!!!!!!!!!!

and its not 30 dollars its actually only worth about 5 usa dollars..my bad thanks for the offer but no thanks:icon_thumleft:
 

Diaz,
You might also want to add SS's offer to your item description on Ebay.
Something interesting, like "Have been offered a high dollar amount, but couldn't agree on international exchange rates."
That should get some attention.
 

Its a generous offer and possibly the best you will get. I would love to sell some of the items in my scrap bucket of unknowns for 30 dollars.

BTW maybe you should repost pictures of the item in question every few pages. Good luck with eBay and let us know so we can follow it and show our support.. It has little value IMO but someone may buy it just out of curiosity. Afterall 2 members voted over $20 and you only need 1 buyer. Too bad you cant see a Jesus image on it. DIAZ youve been a lot of fun and a good sport this time around.

I also agree that you can see rust color in the pits.

Believe it or not, I just got a letter from a gentleman in Nigeria the other day that would like to wire over a million US$ in funds into my checking account and for my assistance I get to keep some of it--apparently his brother used to work for the government or something like that. The timing is uncanny, just now when this item is about to go up for sale! So when the funds get transferred, I will give Silver Searcher a run for his money! I am determined to keep this one-of-a-kind item in the US!
