Why this rock is
probably not a meteorite:
This photo was sent by a fellow who said that the "rock" had
been given to his "other...by a lady. She said that she had a friend
that was a meteor hunter" in Arizona.

What is it?
I suspect that this is, indeed, an iron meteorite. The shape is typical
of an iron. It has regmaglypts and
a fusion crust that has been worn away along the edges, as if someone
carried it in his pocket for a
long time. See meteorwrong no. 146.
