If you have received this month's Meteorite Magazine, there is an article in
there about John Wasson, and he says that he often receives pieces of campo
from people who swear they found it themselves. I would be extremely
skeptical until you get it cut and etched, then classified.

Yup...it's a true meteorite alright but for me it just looks like a

He bought it from an unknown mineral dealer who doesn't know to much about
meteorites.
Chiao!!

Thanks so far Bernd and Matteo,
It was also hard to imagine for me there was one
avalable this size!!
I guess he just got himself a fake Italian but
still....it's a real piece
of spacejunk alright for little money, so still a
good deal i think!!
Thanks you guys....
