Gracias Jose for this treat today! Very interesting! If I understood, this specimen is actually two pieces, both with secondary crust along the faces of their union that is not visible in the photos.

This is a stunning meteorite Jose. The black fresh crust with the regged marks make this a real treasure. Cheers
