The most unusual 'anchor that has followed me home

Anchorites,

I have a small piece of aluminum foil which went to the moon
(and back).

I was a helicopter pilot on the carrier which recovered the
Apollo 7 astronauts.  One helo had recovered part of the
insulation from the capsule after it had splashed down, and I
got a bit of the aluminum foil.

Let's hear from others on the list regarding the most unusual
item
you've got in your collection.

(I will not be connecting the siren to the power mains; it's
more
for decoration than scaring the neighbors...)
