Not a coin - payed $200 for it

you will agree the price was right.

the Lincoln cent is included for scale.

I paid $200 for the object on the right, because it was inside the valve cover of my car engine. I was adding a bottle of engine oil, and the foil seal which I cut part way with my thumbnail, it fell into the engine! I could not see it through the filler hole, it must have flowed in between the lifters! I put the bonnet down and called my trusty European auto mechanic. 

He says that requires FOE , Foreign Object Extraction. 

Happens all the time. He is an expert. 

He drives up with a boroscope and a kit of endoscopic tools. He found the object and removed it in about 30 seconds. 

I paid him in cash. hard lesson learned for $200.

Why add oil engine in the first place ? That's a problem right there😀
