What's the coolest find you've made?

[BFBulletMagnet]

I found that my girlfriend is the worst driver in the world on gran turismo.

Good.
Share her with another girl and you can have a threesome.

Actually, that wouldn't be ideal. What if the girl is better than him at it?!

I work as a cashier, and a few weeks ago, some girl paid with a 5 dollar bill....... from 1979. *cue gasps*



Another one, a few days ago, some lady paid for her things, and gave me a dime....... from 1914. *cue gasps*



I collect coins and old currency too.

Is that permitted for you to take out the fromer models of coins, bills and currency from the checkout counter after the work is over?

The second coolest find was GTplanet in 2004 when I was browsing the internet for GT4 information.

I was trying on a winter coat in 2009. When trying it on I found a 50 pence coin in the pocket. The coat was £75, but for a coat that lucky I thought it would be worth it. So I took it to the checkout with the £75 in hand, to find it had been reduced to half price. For 3 consecutive years (2010, 2011 and now) when starting to wear the coat again ready for the colder weather, I have found a note of varying value in the pocket that I didn't know I had (£10 in 2010, £5 last year and again this year).

It cost me £37.50, but it has generated £20.50 in revenue. So the coat I thought would cost me £75, has actually cost me £17. Soon it will generate a profit.

I think that qualifies as a cool find; A coat that grows money.

And who said money doesn't grow on trees. They grow on coats!!!

The other week I was fishing in a river right? Well a long time ago (Im guessing mid 80's-90's) an old Nissan (mid 80's) flew off of the road which was maybe 50ft above our heads and the car slammed into a tree and still lies there to this day, unfortunately all the guts were ripped out long ago. I also have found a 60's Dr. Pepper machine way way WAY upstream on the same river it was an ugly teal green and made in Lima Ohio by "Quikool" I believe.

 

[MoLiEG]

About 700 pesos (say, 60 dollars)

I once found this really cool website on the internet. I think it was called GT Planet or something like that.

Baby Ichthyosaur spine on Charmouth Beach last December. Here are the cleaned fossil bones:

And here's where we found it:

We searched for ages, bit couldn't find the skull.

^ Wow, that's far more interesting.

I've found $40 lying in a parking lot next to a pair of binoculars. Few cars around, and none with 100 feet of this oddity. This was about twenty years ago, so it was a pretty decent find...can't remember picking up more than a quarter off the ground every so often, nowadays.

I've also turned in a few lost wallets before, without touching or rifling through anything. And I've encountered more than a few mp3 players and phones lying about in airplane seats and waiting areas, and handed/pointed out those over to gate agents and flight attendants, too.

A £5 note just lying on the floor on Monday.

 

[Bopop4]

I found an old 1950-1960's truck rusted and gutted out while dirtbiking years ago, just laying in the middle of the woods.

The VIN plate code said it was a Chevy, C-10 I think.

A friend and I found a old Johnson 15 or 20 hp outboard and 3 boat tanks hidden in a small lake in a gravel pit, under 3 feet of water and covered in rocks, they had only been there for a couple days because that's where we regularly ran our R/C boats. Figured they were stolen so we pulled it all out and called the police, 30 days or so later they were officially ours.

I camp quite a lot, since I was a child, so I've found many fossils, especially in arid southern Colorado. Mostly shell fossils, and never anything super historical like old arrow heads (which most people think litter the Colorado wilderness for some reason). I did find a portion of a trilobite when I was little. I took it to show and tell at school and I believe my 1st grade teacher stole it while we were at recess. When we came back in from recess it was gone and supposedly the teachers locked the classrooms at recess, so hmmmmm. I was devastated by that, and I didn't even know it was both archeologically and financially valuable at that time.
