inestimable

Too valuable, incalculable

Inestimable describes something too great, valuable, or excellent to be measured or calculated: Her contributions to the field have been of inestimable value.

The word appears almost exclusively with positive things—worth, importance, service, benefit.

You rarely hear of inestimable harm or inestimable stupidity, though logically you could.
