A Viewer's Find: Is It a Meteorite?

Since the beginning of 2023, I've viewed many photos of suspicious stones that I receive from you via email ([email protected]), and I've also had the opportunity to examine dozens of suspicious stones in person. Today, I'm analyzing the appearance and properties of one rather heavy find brought to me by a viewer. Is it a meteorite? What does a meteorite look like? What properties does a meteorite have? You're welcome.
