Hi Jason and List,
To put it very scientifically - it looks like fake dog poo. The
practical joke fake poop you used to see advertised in the back of
comic books with itching powder and x-ray specs.
It's very strange, if it's natural.
Best regards,

The photo of Haig shows concave depressions, not bulbous lumps. It’s not
good photo perspective.
The closest visual match to this stone would be something like Patos de
Minas (the octahedrite), but comparing a relatively fresh desert stone with
fusion crust — to a fissured, decomposing iron from
Coprolites Happen!
Very interesting piece. Somebody will have to have it. Perhaps it could
be put behind a dinosaur for display purposes.

It seems they got your attention despite their inaccuate terminology.

For those who are interested, there is a similar pattern on the Haig
IIIAB iron, as illustrated on page 62 of the book Meteorites and their
Origins by G. J. McCall (1973).

I hate it. Almost 100% made of glue is my guess. There’s no natural way to make
it look like a turf squeezed out of a tube.

I saw that too Paul. I think I saw it once before a while back, being
offered. I have never seen this shaping before either. Very unusual, but I
would guess it must be terrestrial weathering influenced by some sort of
internal structure...e.g. perhaps melt. I took the phrase "modern
burnishing" to
Want everyone's opinion / on this highly unusual morphology.
I don't doubt it is a real meteorite at all just that one side looks altered
or is HUGELY UNIQUE
Christies is currently selling it and gives a cryptic explanation for its
shape as "Modern burnishing"
What the hell does that mean
