Bechar 003 – Exceptional 11.00 g Lunar Meteorite Endpiece in an Exclusive Museum-Style Display with Original Sand from the Find Location Eleven grams of genuine lunar rock in a single aesthetic endpiece—a weight class that is only extremely rarely offered among lunar meteorites. Offered here is an exceptionally large and impressive endpiece of the lunar meteorite Bechar 003, presented in a premium museum-style display box and accompanied by original sand from the find location. While lunar meteorites are most commonly available as tiny fragments, small chips or very lightweight slices, this specimen has an entirely different presence. Weighing an impressive 11.00 g, it is not merely a small sample of lunar material, but a substantial, three-dimensional collector’s specimen that immediately commands attention and becomes a centrepiece in any display. Bechar 003 is officially classified as a lunar feldspathic breccia. Its large prepared display surface reveals a fascinating and highly contrasting structure: numerous bright and white feldspathic clasts are embedded within a dark grey to almost black matrix. Larger grey areas, deep-black rock fragments and occasional finely reflective mineral inclusions add further complexity and visual depth. Thanks to the exceptional size of this specimen, its intricate brecciated structure can be appreciated particularly well. The surface resembles an abstract lunar landscape—dark, ancient and crossed by bright fragments of the Moon’s primordial crust. Under changing light, new details, contrasts and subtle structures continually become visible. As an endpiece, this specimen combines the best of both worlds. The large prepared face provides a direct view into the interior of the lunar rock, while the reverse and broad outer edges preserve a substantial portion of its natural exterior. Its beige, ochre and brown tones create a striking contrast with the dark interior and emphasise the meteorite’s original three-dimensional character. The visible brecciated structure records an extraordinary geological history. Over immense periods of time, lunar rocks were shattered by powerful impacts, mixed together and compacted into new solid material. A later impact eventually launched this rock from the Moon into space, before it completed its cosmic journey and arrived on Earth. Museum-Style Presentation with Original Sand from the Find Location This exceptional specimen is not offered as a loose meteorite, but as a complete and immediately display-ready collector’s object. The meteorite is housed in a professionally designed black presentation box and accompanied by a separate glass vial containing original desert sand from the find location. This creates a direct connection between the lunar rock and the remote landscape in which it was discovered after its journey through space. The combination of: 11.00 g of genuine lunar material, exceptional size, a highly contrasting brecciated structure, preserved natural exterior and an exclusive museum-style presentation with original find-site sand makes this an especially rare and desirable offering. A Bechar 003 endpiece of this size is seldom available—particularly as such a complete and carefully presented ensemble. This is a genuine museum-worthy specimen for discerning collectors who do not simply wish to own a tiny fragment of the Moon, but a substantial lunar meteorite with exceptional character, visual impact and display presence. As a member of the International Meteorite Collectors Association – IMCA #7379 and the Global Meteorite Association – GMA #G0117, I guarantee the authenticity of every meteorite I offer. The complete presentation will, of course, be supplied with a corresponding Certificate of Authenticity. An extremely rare opportunity to add an exceptionally large piece of the Moon, presented in an exclusive museum-style display, to your collection. Thank you and good luck with your bidding!
