The Kensington Runestone is now housed in a museum in Alexandria, Minnesota. It is generally dismissed as a forgery from after the modern settlement of Scandinavian immigrants in the area.

The current thinking is that it is genuine. I am involved in a documentary which goes into great detail on how certain experts tried to debunk it with no clinical research. I have personally talked to key people who have done the chemical analysis ass well as the analysis of the words carved on the stone.
I expect the documentary to be out late this fall or early winter.
