39.3 grams.   LL5

TKW 100kg and counting. Observed fall 15 February 2013, in Chelyabinskaya oblast’, Russia.

Found at the arrow (green or red) on this map.

It has two broken sides with secondary crust.

Maybe it is something like double oriented. I think it was first stable in flight, then it breaks two times and in the end it turned around because there is a little roll-over rim on the round brownish side.
