I think Greg was referring to Puerto Lapice, which fell in October
2007 in Ciudad Real, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain, with a TKW of `500g,
and was a eucrite. The image that Sterling posted really does look
like a eucrite with its glossy fusion crust (and the file name should
give it away as well). Mike Farmer's oriented stone looks like an
(extra)ordinary chondrite.

No, I'm sure it was Arizona recently. Maybe some one can dig up that

I think it was found by Mike, but I believe it is an eucrite (high
Ca) he found in Spain??? not sure, but I think in 2008?
Talk about fresh... someone must have caught it with a baseball
glove.
It sure is a beauty!!

This looks similar to the one Mike Farmer found in Arizona a month
or so ago. It has a glassy look to it.

THIS is a meteorite that just fell only days
before some sharp-eyed fellow picked it up:

I sure hope this is some kind of joke, or I'm gonna be scarred for
life.
The black fusion crust doesn't look like anything I thought it
would look.
