Description: I have several meteorite items and lots available. All are guaranteed 100% authentic. I am a member of the Meteoritical Society.

1) $5 Stocking Stuffer Meteorites! - For only $5 you get a acrylic gem-jar display/storage case with 2-4 small genuine meteorite fragments inside. Each gem-jar case has a foam pad inside which holds the meteorites against the lid to keep them from shifting around. On the reverse side of the jar (bottom) there is an identification label with data about the meteorite. You also get a certificate of authenticity. These make great gifts for kids of all ages (just make sure it's not toddlers who may put these small objects in their mouth) - hand these to a kid and tell them it's a shooting star and their eyes light up. It's a great outreach prop. They are also about 4.5 billion years old and are attracted to a magnet. The $5 price also includes free shipping to anywhere in the CONUS. Overseas shipping please add $5. I have several of these $5 lots available.

2) Genuine Lunar-origin meteorite "Moon Rock" - this is a real fragment from the lunar meteorite NWA 4737, a rare Mare Basalt from the surface of our nearest neighbor. This meteorite was found in the Sahara desert of Northwest Africa (Morocco), and consists of only 1372 grams. It's makeup is primarily pyroxene and plagioclase, but it also contains Ilmenite, baddeleyite, zirconolite, tranquilityite, pyrrhotite, and metal. This piece of the Moon comes in a nice display box with a lunar-themed landscape photo and the specimen's identification. There is a small cutout window where the specimen can be seen. The display box can also be opened and the specimen removed for handling. Yes, it's possible to hold a piece of the Moon in your hand without being an astronaut! This lunar meteorite is guaranteed authentic and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Asking $40, which includes shipping to anywhere on the CONUS. Overseas shipping please add $5.

3) Genuine Martian-Origin meteorite "Mars Rock" - this is a real fragment of the Martian meteorite NWA 4925, a Shergottite of which only 282 grams exists on Earth. There is a very limited quantity of this rare Martian meteorite on the global marketplace. Traces of gas found inside this meteorite only match one chemistry known to man - the atmosphere of Mars. This bizarre rock comes from the Red Planet and like the lunar meteorite above (#2), it comes in a clear acrylic display box with a Martian-themed color landscape photo with cutout to hold the specimen. No man has ever walked on Mars, but you can hold a piece of it in your hand. Asking $40, which includes shipping to anywhere in the CONUS. Overseas shipping please add $5.

4) Moon and Mars Rocks Display Case - this handsome black pebble-grain display case (with glass lid) has small specimens of the lunar meteorite
NWA 4737 and Martian meteorite NWA 4925. This display would make the perfect gift to display in the home, observatory, or office. Both specimens can be removed from the case for individual handling - or for holding fragments of two worlds in the palm of your hand! I am asking $75 and that includes shipping to anywhere in the CONUS. Overseas shipping please add $5.

5) 100 gram lots of small meteorite fragments. These are the real deal - genuine stony chondrites found in the Sahara Desert where they fell from space. These SPACE ROCKS are over 4 billion years old - older than Earth itself! Each one of these small stone-like meteorites is a fragment of a shooting star! Each meteorite is one-of-a-kind and is truly out of this world! I am selling these meteorites in generous 100 gram quantities (weighed on a digital scale). Each 100 gram lot consists of dozens of small stones that range in size from just under a gram to over 10 grams each. Asking $25 for each 100gr lot - that includes free shipping to anywhere in the CONUS.

6) Premium grade small meteorites 100 gram lot - these lots are similar in nature to #5 above. All of the meteorites in these premium lots are handpicked from a much larger lot. All of these stones are guaranteed to have nice dark crust and/or wind polish. Asking $30 for each 100gr lot - includes free CONUS shipping.

7) Tatahouine Diogenite micromounts - a generous sized fragment of the famous "Green Diogenite" Tatahouine which nicely shows the green color and black clasts that this meteorite is well-known for. Each fragment comes in a gem jar with data label and certificate of authenticity. Asking $10 - includes free CONUS shipping.
