The is just a representation of what you will get. Most piece will be 50-95% crusted (average around 70+%). I will also either include a 98+% crusted stone or an uncut impact melted stone. The piece in the lower left corner is an impact melted piece (note the dark band in the bottom of the stone).

These will consist of somewhat larger pieces but will have many sub 20 gram stones as well. As I mentioned for the 100g lot I will also either include a 98+% crusted stone or an uncut impact melted stone. This is also just a representation of the lot you will receive.
I will also have 500 gram lots(not pictured) $2.50/g which could have stones up to 75 grams but will have many individuals under 25 g as well. The 1 kg lots(not pictured) are priced at $2.25/g if anyone is interested in a larger lot.
Here are some really nice smaller pieces. Small Chergach
