I have the main mass and Bill Gates, where ever you are, don't listen
to Tracy---you can easily afford it.
Seriously, the comparative table previously provided is flawed as all
the sales were not for one gram specimens. I've sold a 1/10 carat of
GV for the equivalent of $165,000---but the most for a one gram
specimen or more was "only" $12,000.
BTW, I traded GV for the 13 kg Willamette specimen I obtained from the
American Museum of Natural History.
At the time, I thought it was one of my better exchanges....
....ouch.

Last I saw, one of the priciest meteorites was the Martian
Governador Valadares, of which only a few grams has ever made it out
of institutions for private collectors. Milligrams cost thousands,
and Bill Gates couldn't afford the main mass, should it ever become
available.
Best!

Subject: [meteorite-list] Question
List:
I was wondering what was the most valuable single meteorite - not
scientific but the most value $/gram?
Also, what is the most valuable type? Mars, Lunar or other? Do
Lunar meteorites still have the most value?
Much Thanks,
Greg S.
