An unnamed man in Michigan, the owner of a special meteorite recently learned that for a long time he used a 'money' just to… stop the door.

The man said he had been using meteorite stones since 1988 until now without knowing its value.

The meteorite weighing nearly 10kg was available in the house this man bought from the former owner in 1988. The old owner actually introduced the house before selling. Of course, there was a meteorite that picked up on the farm after a meteor shower in 1930.

The 10kg heavens meteorite was only considered a 'stone' and used to block doors for a long time.

It is worth mentioning that for a long time, the meteorite stone weighs nearly 10kg, not interested by many people and both old and new homeowners only consider it a normal stone, so it was used to block the door.

Recently, however, the man who is the current owner of this stone heard that someone sold a small piece of meteorite that was so valuable that he thought of the meteorite that blocked his door.

Later, the 10kg heavier meteorite man decided to take it to Mona Serbescu, an atmospheric and geological researcher at Central Michigan University for assessment.

As expected of a 10kg meteorite owner, Mona geologist has confirmed that it is one of the six largest meteorites found in Michigan.

The estimated value of a 10kg meteorite department is estimated at about $ 100,000.

Currently, the owner of meteorite has not yet decided to sell. However, the Smithsonian Museum is considering buying meteorites for display and research.
