[meteorite-list] My daughter Lauren is getting married in 2 weeks AD sale!
Hello List, Many of you have met my elder daughter Lauren In Tucson Show the several times she has been there with me over the years. Well, In just 2 weeks Lauren is getting married! I know, it is hard to believe, and that you all remember her when she was just "this" tall. Well, it is true, and her mother and I are very excited. And we wanted to take this opportunity toinvite ALL of you to... help us pay for it! I have some bills with the wedding still to pay for, andsome other non-wedding bills as well, and so I am very motivated to make somegreat deals this week. Up for negotiation are someof the following: Gibeon Anvil Slices. Reduced to $499. Originally Priced at $900, for a VERY LIMITED TIME, and for a LIMITED number of slices, I am reducing the price per slice to $499 each! Yes, you read that correctly. Just $499. If you didn't read my post to the list on Aug 7, I have copied at the bottom of this email AND the current issue of Meteorite Magazine has a great story about the specimen written by my wife Qynne. I will consider cutting one slice into halves or into 4 quarters if and only if I have all (two or four) parts spoken for, and the cost per half will be $299 and the cost per 1/4 will be $199. All slices are priced the same, no matter how thick or how big, as each slice tells the same story. Please ask for specific details. Photos can be seen here: http://s361.photobucket.com/albums/oo52/stevearnoldpmh/Gibeon%20Anvil%20Slices/ Gibeon Anvil Main Mass, 41kg. $410,000 OK, I am joking. I really don't know what it is worth, and not sure what I would sell it for, but I would entertain any offer that included at least a nice chunk of cash and possibly some trade material. Brenham Slices. Some large 20 inch wide 600g to 2.5 kg oriented full slices available and some part slices from the 351 kg oriented mass. Ask for details and prices. Ash Creek individuals and slices. I have a few Ash Creek individuals and huge full slices available and am willing to deeply discount them. Meteorite Magnets in large numbers at discounted prices., If anyone wants $500 worth or $1000 worth of the meteorite Magnets personally autographed by me that I sell on ebay,, I will sell in bulk at very deep discounts. These sell GREAT at shows where you set up and sell to live people. Meteorite Riker Sets in large numbers at discounted prices. I am selling these like crazy out of my retail store. Retail priced at $9.99 up to $49.99, depending on the rock and the weight, these items do GREAT. See here: http://s361.photobucket.com/albums/oo52/stevearnoldpmh/Riker%20Box%20Sets/ Caldwell Kansas slices or larger chunks, Ask. Fayetteville AR crumbs, Never on the market before, this fall happened just 3 miles from the University of Arkansas campus. I only have a couple of grams of crumbs. Go Hogs! Muonionalusta. 14.8 kg mass. Would chop in half or sell whole. Make offer. Once I get enough money for pressing matters, the sale will go off. If someone is really smart, I would not be surprised if someone would buy a big assortment of my Gibeon Anvil slices and the sale will be over before a lot of you even read this. But, who knows, if something interests you, check in with me just in case there is still time. Thanks.

Amazingly rare, historically significant, and way off the "Wow Chart!"Gibeon is one of the largest strewnfields in the world, with hundreds of large and thousands of smaller sizes specimens found since science "discovered" it in 1836. However, it is impossible to know how many tons of this meteorite had been found and used for millennia before 1836 by the natives in and around the huge Gibeon Strewnfield. It makes perfect sense that as people would find hunks of iron laying around, that they would take hammer sized pieces, and make hammers out of them, and take anvil sized pieces, and make anvils out of them and take smaller sized pieces and forge tools such as hoes, scrapers, knives, and spear points etc., out of those.Until now, I am an not aware that any meteorite from Gibeon specimens to have shown any definite traces of being altered due to being hammered upon while being used as an anvil. Smaller pieces forged into thinner tools likely would have rusted away after a few hun
