Your most interesting coin spills / pocket spills

I always have been interested in coin spills, especially with a nice variety of different coins in them. They show you wich different coins actually circulated side by side, even if they belong to totally different coin series or even different currencies (for example a early 1800's coin spill in the USA could simultanuously contain US, British, Spanish and probably even other foreign coins).

What were your most interesting coin spills? Either because of the large variation of coins (or lack of variation) in it, the large date span between the individual coins or other aspects wich are interesting to you.

    I like coin spills, mainly because they often give a good idea of when the coins were dropped.

    All of my coin spills are listed in my primary thread on this site, although the following come to mind immediately as favorites:

    Worn Barber quarter with a 1945? wheat cent

    Pair of late Indian cents with a pair of early wheat cents

    Trio of Mercury dimes
