Hello Steve and List,
I would have to say NWA 4468 Primitive Shergottite would be my own personal
"Holy Grail" of Martian meteorites, not only because it is so fresh and
beautiful, but because of the pure hell I had to go through to retrieve it
from Western Sahara. You can read the story in the November 2006 issue of
Meteorite Magazine, image on the cover as well :-)

Subject: [meteorite-list] holy grail of martian meteorites
Hi again list.With all the martain meteorites out
there,I was wondering.What is the holy grail of all
martain meteorites?ZAGAMI?LAFAYETTE?Any of the
NWA'S?The DAG'S?DHOFARS?ALH 84001?I thought this might
be a good thread to start.While I was at the bank last
week,I was organizing my other collection and I was
wondering what is the holy grail of martains?I have a
6.3 gram slice of D. A. G. 476 as my only martain.So
it brought the above question.Any comments will be
excitingly awaited.
