    A surprising geyser eruption in Yellowstone National Park coughed up some surprising objects that had been tossed into it over the decades. Human stuff like coins and cans aren't surprising, necessarily, but a 1930's pacifier?

    "After Ear Spring erupted on September 15, employees found a strange assortment of items strewn across the landscape around its vent! Some are clearly historic: they'll be inventoried by curators and may end up in Yellowstone's archives," park officials said on their Facebook page.

    So all those coins damage would be considered Mint errors right?

    Funny, they have “Exhibit #17” for four cig butts and the brands listed. Pretty sure if those were sitting down in the geyser for years they’d all have dissolved.
