TKW 75.3 kg. Observed fall: no. Found 2001 in Northwest Africa.

Greg writes:
This 10kg (9883g) sculptural individual was originally purchased in uncleaned condition at the Ensisheim Show in 2011 by Greg Hupe and then professionally cleaned by Keith and Dana Jenkerson in 2015. Notice how all of the fine flow lines, troilite inclusions and all of the regmaglypts have been revealed!
