One of the most famous of all "pallasitic" meteorites, Seymchan is a popular variety - for the numerous examples with the combination of a silvery metallic and greenish-gold crystalline interior when cut and polished which is what makes this type of meteorite so collectible and considered the most beautiful. A great example, this slice is replete with colorful crystals amid the mirror-like steely core of a space rock.
