thanks guys...this one is my necklace specimen that I often use with different soft lanyards. I was very lucky to get to the show early that day, and I purchased 4 beautiful specimens that morning, and should have bought 40 in retrospect. The dealer who spoke little English had a great selection of newer finds that were showing up at that time. Pricing had crashed during those days on many meteorites and SA went down to unbelievably low levels. "good ole days" :)

This "natural" hole where something must have weathered out makes this SA extraordinarily special!
