La Lune Special Stone...Anybody got one?

Picked up this vintage La Lune from Griffith.

Pick the La Lune out the lineup? Side by side comparison if La Lune vs Vermont slate. The slate was a construction site cast off. I have now compared these 3 on slurry, water, glycerin and oil. Can’t tell the difference between the stones under a microscope. Can’t tell the differences in edge performance, if I had to pick one I would say the roof tile gives slightly keener edge under oil. I have seen enough to believe they are the same stone.
