At current market prices, such an asteroid, a truly unique object in our solar system, is estimated to be worth $10,000 quadrillion ($10,000,000,000,000,000,000).

Based on my own calculations, referring to the law of supply and demand and based on projected future market prices should such a new supply become available, I estimate the asteroid (and all other iron and nickel) to be worth approximately $1.32. However I could be off by up to $1.
