Oh dear.
Looks like an old toilet plunger that's been melting in the hot desert sun!
Good luck with your rejection letter.

Subject: [meteorite-list] The Latest Nevada Find, Not
Dear List,
The "four million dollar meteorite" showed up that I mentioned yesterday.
The sad thing is that these people actually convince themselves that these
are real meteorites and that they are worth millions. This guy thinks his
is exactly like Sonny's find that he saw on TV, only bigger. He says that
he did his research, went to the neighborhood and found it, figuring a
professional must have missed it. He wrote to me that he sealed it in a
coffee can and smelled it a couple of days later. He stated that he could
detect the unmistakable smell of Murchinson that only carbon type
meteorites give off. I believe this object is made out of tar and that is
what he is smelling or he has been sniffing the sauce (drinking too much
alcohol). Either way, this is another heartbreak in the making.
Now, I have the unpleasant task of returning it to him with the bad news
that he is not the latest millionaire and that the funds for his
granddaughter's medical bills will have to come from somewhere else..
Here are some images for those who may be interested:
