So very cool! And thanks for linking the older thread, and u/meteoritegallery links to even more detail explanation and pics.

If I were to go out looking for meteorites of any sort, how would I start? Researching all sites with documented meteorite impacts that could be within a few hundred miles? Digging, metal detecting, surface? Not asking for you to do any work for me, just giving me an idea of how possible it is for the average uninformed to find anything meteoric?

Lovely specimen.
