PLAINVIEW METEORITE END PIECE WITH H.H. NININGER PROVENANCE, H5 Hale County, Texas

The natural exterior surface of this meteorite is covered in fusion crust (the result of burning through Earth’s atmosphere). The crust is tinted in a palette of cocoa-hues with darker accents—a patina acquired from having been exposed to the elements while laying on Earth’s surface. The cut and polished interior face is also rendered in deep earthen hues, but accented with flecks of metal. The original Nininger catalog label “92.538” is evident.
63 x 75 x 29mm. (2½ x 3 x 1in.)
