When my family visited Estonia last year, we found a 2 Euro coin in our hotel room. My daughter is really interested in which countries the coins come from, so we looked it up. The outer ring was from one country and the center disc was from another country. Apparently Euro coins taken out of circulation have also been sent to Russia to be scrapped. For security, the outer ring and the inner disc were sent separately to different facilities. Apparently somebody got in touch with both facilities and was pressing the coins back together and putting them back in circulation.
