Rare coin finds from circulation

The clip is a perfectly good error. Congratulations. I am puzzled by what's happening on the other side, though, as I don't have an explanation. Will have to give it a think.

Thank you both. First time in all those years that I find a commemorative coin of Finland and then not just 1 but 2

Since many cash passes by my hands each day, i find a lot of rare coins and i have completed many countries and a lot of conmemorative 2 euros. The last one i found was this past week, 2 euros from Andorra, 2017.

Also a few british coins, including a 2017 pound, and even 25 halalas from Saudi Arabia, among many others that i can't remember right now.

Maybe not completely a circulation find, but on the other hand. i changed them for face value.
Just came back from our summer holiday, our fist part were in France and the 2nd part were in Spain.. We had to cover 1 night somewhere and we decided to stay over in Andorra..
For a quick 'snack' we took a Doner Kebab, as change we received a 5 Cent Eurocoin from Andorra. I asked the employee if he had maybe more Andorra coins, he took my question very seriously.. and he went through all the coins in the cash register.. 

The score / new additions to my collection:
2 Cent 2017
5 Cent 2018 & 2019
10 Cent 2018, 2019, 2020 & 2021
20 Cents 2018, 2019 & 2021
2 Euro 2015, 2020 & 2021

I do collect Euro coins from the beginning, but i don't buy them.. All my Euro coins are from the circulation and for face value. (only this week i bought also a complete set in Andorra.. )
It seems i'm very lucky with my colleague, i have a office job at a very large warehouse serving whole Europe and further.. My colleague (warehouse) ask almost every truck driver if he can check his change..   
For me a perfect source.. I think at least 80% is in original colour and as new.. I attached 2 screenshots showing a small part of my collection..

Two years ago I was watching my grandson play rugby and I bought a bacon sandwich, I gave the cashier a £5 note and in my change was a 2009 Kew Gardens fifty pence.

Very nice lot of Andorran coins you managed to get! And you are lucky to have a colleague like that.

Congrats on the coin finds/gets from Andorra!

Very nice of the man, and definitely a cool, hmm, find.
