Port Orford meteorite hoax Port Orford meteorite hoax The Port Orford meteorite hoax concerns a 19th-century claimed meteorite discovery near Port Orford, Oregon in 1856. The meteorite has attracted the interest of meteorite hunters, with a value reported as high as $300 million.

Evans returned a sample to the East Coast, but he died in 1861 before the discovery could be corroborated.
