Yup... sure does. It's got me looking twice at it.

I thought it was a meteorite at first, but it's non-magnetic and no
visible iron. Then when I lifted it from the box it's lighter than
normal. There's some tiny flecks of something that might be metal but
super small and only shows up under 10X (plus) magnification.

I used a very powerful and very large neodymium magnet to test for
magnetism and nothing.

No nickel test yet, but I imagine it will be negative.

Regards,
Eric
