A fisherman in the Philippines has kept what might be the largest natural pearl ever found hidden in his home for more than 10 years.
According a report in the local Palawan News, a man from Puerto Princesa, on Palawan Island, found it more than a decade ago while out fishing. His boat’s anchor caught on the giant clam and he had to swim down to dislodge it.
He was not aware of its potential value but kept it as a good luck charm.
