When we were cleaning up some leftover boxes of stuff a week ago, we put aside a special place for any coins found, specifically so that they won't be sucked up by the vacuum.always nervous when I use the vacuum!
The boxes having only been there for two years, it was mostly just a bunch of common modern Russian coinage, but there was also a Bulgarian 2 stotinki 1881 (damaged, and with green spots, but otherwise very nice) that I didn't even recall having ever bought originally.
Worst place was when my mom found one of my lost wire kopeks on our boot rug (and believe me, those things aren't called "fishscales" for nothing).
There were three of them lost; the second was found on the same rug the next day, and the the third on a completely unrelated table a year and a half later.

This explains the 2 stotinki, and the random bicentennial half dollar I found five years earlier (which I also did not recall ever buying).When this happens normally it is just a replacement and you should or could actually find an item that doesn't belong here although you don't notice.
Some alternate dimensional counterpart to me must have just lost that 2 stotinki recently. Poor guy.
