Extremely rare Victorian Microscope slide from circa 1853.....Diamond etched slide with rare Alien material...Says " Meteorite Mezo Maderas "
What makes this extra special is Mezo Maderas fell on the 4th Sept 1852 and is classified as a L3.7.It f...ell in Harghita Romania only 22kg(50lbs) in a shower of stones..Very few samples will be outside of Museums or in private hands the reason this Meteorite is such a special sought after example is because it is unequilibrated, meaning its Asteroid parent body underwent very little change from its formation 4.56 billion years ago.
A recent Meteorite slide from late 1890's that fell in Germany sold at auction with fees close to three hundred pounds..
If you are an Academic , scholar or perhaps a Geologist or amateur Microscopist this will be a fascinating slide to study and a rare chance to own a sample of this particular Meteorite.This comes from a much larger Geological slide collection which I will be listing at some point very soon. Another Diamond etched slide from the same collection has a date inscribed for 1855 as well as we know this Meteorite fell in 1852 we can nearly precisely date this slide..Will post Worldwide will be sent tracked and Insured and very well packed..I have sold many valuable rare slides and collections in the past so BID with confidence if you would love to own this rare slide from another world ...Low start no reserve auction..The highest bidder will win..Please ask any questions happy to answer all enquiries ..Thankyou..Pictures form part of the description and please forgive the quality I am using only a very basic x20 magnification cheap camera on an old computer system..Under a good polarising microscope this will show much more detail.
