Hi Paul!
I think you got the gold price a bit high... it is $1266 per troy ounce
or $39 per gram.
Then 50 times their weight in gold is $1970 per gram. I've seen higher
prices for meteorites.
Granted, not many meteorites would reach that price.... but a witnessed
lunar fall might do it.

Good afternoon Folks,
Imagine that "50 times their weight in gold." That would be what, $50,000
a gram? LOL
Nice try...if they can sell it!
Best regards,

Meteorite may have landed in Clare
Wednesday, 15 September 2010 13:51
Scientists believe that a meteorite that landed in Ireland on September 1
may have touched down in north east Clare. According to Ireland’s foremost
astronomer, David Moore, the September 1 meteorite is likely to have landed
in land along the border between Clare, Galway and Tipperary. Moore, who
is also the Chairman of Astronomy Ireland is appealing to people who
witnessed the fireball to contact the association. The person who discovers the
meteorite is also likely to receive a major cash boost as fragments of
meteorites are regularly sold for 50 times their weight in gold.
