I have a glass sphere with a piece enclosed within a wooden box. I purchased it from a fellow cS member a couple of years ago.

The number on my wooden box piece is 138/1000.

There was also a poster that had a square piece of the oxygen tank insulation inside a small plastic pouch (which could easily be cut open and the piece removed). And there were baseball card-size presentations with a shard from the tank's insulation laminated onto its front.

Both came with the same set of documentation as the above display.

At the time the media were covering the re-entry of Skylab over Australia I wrote a very speculative letter to the "Town Hall" of Esperance shire.

Some 8 weeks later I received through the mail a nice piece of authenticated debris from the State Emergency Committee inclusive of a photocopied COA.

The COA would suggest they mailed out quite a few loose samples.
