Fisherman kept pearl worth an estimated $130M under his bed for 10 years
A Filipino fisherman in western Palawan island has found possibly the world’s biggest pearl, but he didn’t know it.
For 10 years, the 34-kilogram (75-pound) pearl was hidden in a bag under a bed. The fisherman’s family would rub it with their hands before going out to sea in the belief it would bring them luck, said relative Aileen Amurao.
