My one friend and I have been leaving odd gifts on my friend’s car with notes like “I think this fell out of your car” nothing of value. Nothing that can damage the vehicle.

    A gallium coin

    This could be quite harmful though. Gallium reacts with metals like aluminum and steel in strange and destructive ways.

      That’s true, but if the car is cheap plastic, then it might be fine.

      (For those not familiar with gallium, it’s basically mercury but safe; so it’s a liquid at room temperature but a solid just below that, depending on where you live, without the risk of Mad Hatter’s disease)

        Until it leaks out of their pocket inside the warm car and drips onto the seat rails, or something similar.
