This large unclassified NWA from the Tucson Gem and Mineral shows in 2013 is one of the best NWAs I have ever seen. Highly oriented with flow lines engulfing the entire chondrite, cone shaped, and having deeply grooved regmaglypts in the rear of flight, I have yet to find another to match it. The fusion crust was also in pristine condition even as both the bottom and backside however were fragmented. I wish I had this in my collection!
