475 gram oriented individual

This specimen measures 110mm nose to tail.  The width of the specimen at the widest point which is near the nose is 53mm by 45mm.   This is one of my favorite specimens that I have ever seen because it looks like it has been frozen in flight.  I can easily visualize the burning metal flying off the tail as it plunges to earth.

   Here is how I display the meteorite.  It is sitting on a wooden base with a circular rare earth magnet imbedded in the top where the meteorite rests.
