Every year, people donate thousands of objects to museums.

Most are exactly what you’d expect!

These weren’t. 👀

While sorting through a collection of donated buttons at an Australian museum, several radioactive surprises were found, including uranium-glazed and radium-containing pieces. ☢️

Makes you wonder what else is hiding in museum collections around the world, better yet, what people might have?
