A farmer from Australia kept an ordinary stone for 10 years. It wasn’t an ordinary stone for him. In his opinion there was gold in it, and that was the reason he kept it for so long.

An Australian named David Hall was looking for gold. His farms are located near Melbourne.

This place was visited in the 19th century because once gold was found on that territory. David decided that the boulder he found was not just a stone, but gold hidden under the mineral.

The stone was so durable that the man could not destroy it and see what was inside it, and even the most modern tools did not help him cope with the task.

When Hall realized that any attempts did not give results, he simply put the stone on the shelf as a souvenir, but continued to believe that it was valuable and one day he will find the gold. Most likely, he would have continued to dust there until now if his friend didn’t do this.

Turned out that the stone stored on the shelf was nothing but a meteorite. It means it had even higher price than he expected.
