It was fishing a steam and it was getting pretty late at night when I heard a burning and looked up to see a little ball of fire which landed in the field next to me. I tried to find it, but it was too dark, so I went there the next day and finally found it, although I had to dig a little to get it. Anyway, the object looks like a large shinny ballbearing, but it feels like wet sand. The thing I don't understand is that it has no bounce. I threw it down on the pavement and still absolutely no bounce. It's like I'm throwing a magnet to another magnet. What kind of metal has this property?

Don't take it to anyone you don't trust. It could be of great interest to the scientific community and someone might try to scam it from you.

that actually might be pretty valuable and I think that is a small metorite. A little metorite like that can sell for atleast 10,000 dollars. I know of a story of a woman that her car was hit by a metorite and the metorite sold for 20,000 and her damaged car sold for 40,000. Its amazing what people will buy.
